# Scan a name once against the common-law/TM watch sources.

`GET /v2/watch`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.etymolt.com`
- URL: `https://api.etymolt.com/v2/watch`
- Auth: none declared

One-shot scan. Authenticated + metered.

Each scan is a 7-13 source upstream fan-out (USPTO TESS + Google web
+ WIPO + RDAP + handles + intl jurisdictions). The ``gate_usage``
dependency charges 1 unit per call so the cost is paid via the
user's PAYG balance — no anonymous burn vector.

## Query parameters

- `name` string, required

## Response `200`

Successful Response

- unknown

## Other responses

- `422`: Validation Error
