ABOUT COUNTERFIND

Protecting the Merchandise Behind the World's Most Recognizable Brands

CounterFind is an online brand protection partner that helps global brands detect, remove, and recover from counterfeit infringement across online marketplaces, social platforms, and rogue websites. We combine purpose-built technology with a licensing-native team to protect authorized partners, preserve brand trust, and recover lost revenue.

Built From Firsthand Experience by Licensing Experts

Our mission is simple: help brands regain control in an increasingly complex digital marketplace.

CounterFind was founded by licensing veterans who led programs across consumer products, sports, music and entertainment. We negotiated deals, managed royalties, and filed takedown reports that didn't stick. We built the team and the platform we wished we'd had.

Unlike software-only solutions, every enforcement action is reviewed by experienced professionals who understand the business behind the trademark.

Meet the People Behind CounterFind

Behind every enforcement action is a team of specialists committed to protecting the brands our clients have spent years building.

A Message from the CEO

Finding a counterfeit listing is the easy part. The value is in what happens next — which takedowns matter most, which seller is actually authorized, when removal should become recovery. That's where brand protection is won or lost.

When I joined CounterFind, Darren, Rachel, and Jamie had already built something special: a team that understood this distinction, and a platform designed around it. Our growth since has been nothing short of extraordinary. CounterFind is honored to protect the copyrights, trademarks, and Rights of Publicity of some of the most recognized brands in the world across marketplaces, social platforms, and websites globally.

The standard hasn't changed. We will always view our business from the perspective of our clients, because many of us came from the brand side. Our clients don't need more data about their exposure. They need fewer counterfeits, authorized partners who stay protected, and more of what was taken from them coming back.

— Don Adam, CEO

Why Brands Trust CounterFind

Technology finds. People decide. Brand protection isn't measured by the number of listings removed. It's measured by protected revenue, trusted licensing relationships, and the confidence that your brand is represented the way it was intended. That's the standard we hold ourselves to every day.
