1. Purpose
This Trademark Policy governs the use of trademarks owned by Neural-LLM ("Neural-LLM," "we," "our," or "us"), the nominative fair use of trademarks owned by Anthropic, PBC and other third parties in Neural-LLM's materials, and the rights and responsibilities of third parties who wish to reference Neural-LLM's marks.
This policy is published to:
- Define Neural-LLM's proprietary marks and assert Neural-LLM's ownership;
- Clarify the basis on which Neural-LLM uses third-party marks, in particular those owned by Anthropic, PBC, OpenAI, xAI and Moonshot AI;
- Provide clear guidance to third parties on permitted and prohibited uses of Neural-LLM's marks; and
- Prevent consumer confusion, dilution, and unauthorized commercial exploitation of Neural-LLM's brand equity.
2. Neural-LLM's Own Marks
2.1 Owned Trademarks
The following marks are owned by Neural-LLM:
| Mark | Form | Registration Status |
|---|---|---|
| Neural-LLM | Word mark | Unregistered common-law mark, in use since 2025 |
| Power Agents | Word mark | Unregistered common-law mark, in use since 2026 |
| Power Claude | Word mark | Unregistered common-law mark, in use since 2025 |
| Power Codex | Word mark | Unregistered common-law mark, in use since 2025 |
| Power Grok | Word mark | Unregistered common-law mark, in use since 2025 |
| Power Kimi | Word mark | Unregistered common-law mark, in use since 2025 |
| Neural-LLM logo | Design mark | Unregistered common-law mark, in use since 2025 |
| Power Claude logo | Design mark | Unregistered common-law mark, in use since 2025 |
Each product name is a composite: a Neural-LLM element ("Power") followed by a third-party element that is another company's mark. Neural-LLM claims rights only in the composite as used, and claims no rights in the third-party element standing alone. See Section 3.
2.2 General Rules for Neural-LLM's Marks
Whether or not expressly licensed, all uses of Neural-LLM's marks by any party (including Neural-LLM itself) must:
- Not falsely imply affiliation, sponsorship, or endorsement that does not exist;
- Not be used in a manner likely to cause confusion as to the source, origin, or quality of goods or services;
- Maintain the mark's integrity — do not alter, distort, abbreviate, or combine Neural-LLM's marks with other words or symbols in a way that creates a new composite mark without written authorization; and
- Include appropriate trademark attribution in materials that use the marks (e.g., "Neural-LLM and Power Claude are trademarks of Neural-LLM").
3. Third-Party Marks Used by Neural-LLM
3.1 Host Vendor Marks
Each Power Agents product interoperates with one third-party AI coding assistant, and names that vendor's mark in its own product name:
| Product | Host Software mark | Owner ("Host Vendor") |
|---|---|---|
| Power Claude | Claude, Claude Code | Anthropic, PBC |
| Power Codex | Codex | OpenAI |
| Power Grok | Grok | xAI |
| Power Kimi | Kimi | Moonshot AI |
Each of those marks is a trademark or registered trademark of its owner. Neural-LLM uses them in the corresponding product name, documentation, website, and marketing materials under the nominative fair use doctrine.
Neural-LLM's use of a Host Vendor's marks is:
- Descriptive, not source-identifying — the mark appears in Neural-LLM's materials solely to identify the third-party product with which the corresponding Power Agents product interoperates;
- Not a claim of partnership, sponsorship, or endorsement — Neural-LLM is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any Host Vendor in any way; and
- Not a use of a Host Vendor's logos, stylized branding, or trade dress — Neural-LLM uses only the plain-text word mark in descriptive contexts.
The legal basis for this nominative fair use is the three-prong test articulated in New Kids on the Block v. News America Publishing, Inc., 971 F.2d 302 (9th Cir. 1992):
- Necessity: a product cannot practically be identified without reference to the Host Software it drives — there is no practical alternative name that accurately describes the third-party product with which it interoperates.
- Proportionality: Neural-LLM uses only so much of the mark as is reasonably necessary to identify that product — plain text only, no vendor logos, stylized elements, or trade dress.
- Non-suggestion of endorsement: Neural-LLM takes affirmative steps to prevent any suggestion of vendor endorsement — the non-affiliation disclaimer appears prominently on every product surface, explicitly stating that the vendor is not affiliated with, does not endorse, and does not sponsor Neural-LLM or the product.
The analysis is per mark and per vendor. A fair-use position that holds for "Claude" does not transfer to "Codex", "Grok" or "Kimi": each has a different owner, a different registration footprint, and a different enforcement posture, and each vendor's own brand guidelines may draw the line in a different place.
This fair-use analysis is informational. Neural-LLM should obtain qualified trademark counsel to confirm its fair use position for each product before commercial launch and periodically thereafter.
Nothing in this policy grants any rights in a Host Vendor's marks to Neural-LLM's licensees or customers. Third parties who wish to use a Host Vendor's marks must independently comply with that vendor's own trademark guidelines (Anthropic's are at https://www.anthropic.com/).
3.2 Microsoft Corporation Marks
"Visual Studio Code" and "VS Code" are trademarks of Microsoft Corporation. Neural-LLM uses these marks solely to indicate that the Extension is distributed on the Visual Studio Code Marketplace and operates within the VS Code development environment. This use is descriptive and does not imply affiliation with or endorsement by Microsoft Corporation.

4. Permitted Third-Party Uses of Neural-LLM's Marks
The following uses of Neural-LLM's marks by third parties are permitted without prior written authorization, provided they comply with the General Rules in Section 2.2 and do not fall within the Prohibited Uses in Section 5:
4.1 Editorial, Journalistic, and News Reporting
Journalists, bloggers, analysts, and other editorial content creators may use the marks "Neural-LLM" and "Power Claude" to accurately identify and discuss Neural-LLM and its products in editorial, news, review, or commentary content.
Permitted examples:
- A product review article titled "Power Claude Review: Does It Eliminate Claude Rate Limits?"
- A news item reporting that "Neural-LLM launches Power Claude for VS Code"
- An analyst report comparing developer AI tools that includes Power Claude in the comparison
Requirements: The use must be accurate and not misleading, must not imply endorsement by Neural-LLM, and must include appropriate context clarifying that the Power Agents products are not affiliated with their host vendors where relevant to avoid misleading readers.
4.2 Educational and Academic Use
Educational institutions, instructors, students, and researchers may use Neural-LLM's marks in academic papers, course materials, conference presentations, and non-commercial educational content that accurately discusses Neural-LLM's products.
4.3 Nominative Comparative Advertising
A third party may identify Neural-LLM's products by name when making truthful, non-misleading comparative claims about competing products, provided:
- The comparison is factually accurate and verifiable;
- The use does not imply affiliation, sponsorship, or endorsement by Neural-LLM; and
- The use does not create a likelihood of confusion between the third party's products and Neural-LLM's products.
4.4 Personal, Non-Commercial Commentary
Individuals may use Neural-LLM's marks in personal, non-commercial online commentary (social media posts, forum posts, personal blog posts) to express opinions about Neural-LLM or its products. Non-commercial parody is permitted where it is clearly identifiable as parody and not likely to mislead consumers into thinking it is official Neural-LLM content.
4.5 Compatibility and Integration Statements
Third-party developers may state that their own product "works with Power Claude" — or with Power Codex, Power Grok or Power Kimi — or "is compatible with" it, where this is factually accurate. Such statements must be limited to identifying the compatibility relationship and may not imply endorsement, certification, or partnership with Neural-LLM.
5. Prohibited Uses of Neural-LLM's Marks
The following uses are prohibited without Neural-LLM's prior written authorization:
- Commercial endorsement claims — using Neural-LLM's marks in advertising, marketing, or promotional materials in a way that implies Neural-LLM has endorsed, certified, or partnered with the third party;
- Product naming or branding — incorporating "Neural-LLM," "Power Agents," any product name in the family ("Power Claude," "Power Codex," "Power Grok," "Power Kimi"), or confusingly similar variants (e.g., "Power Claude Pro," "NeuralLLM Cloud," "Power Claude Enterprise") into the name or brand of a third-party product or service;
- Domain names and social media handles — registering domain names or social media handles that incorporate Neural-LLM's marks or confusingly similar variations (e.g.,
powerclaude.com,power-claude.net,@powerclaudeofficial) without Neural-LLM's authorization; - Merchandise and physical goods — using Neural-LLM's marks on apparel, stickers, merchandise, or other physical goods without a written license;
- Modified or derivative marks — creating logos, stylized text, or composite marks that incorporate or are confusingly similar to Neural-LLM's marks;
- Context implying official source — using Neural-LLM's marks in a context that could reasonably cause a consumer to believe that content, software, or services are officially from Neural-LLM when they are not;
- Competing product development — using Neural-LLM's marks in a manner that implies Neural-LLM has authorized or is associated with a competing product;
- Trademark registration — registering or attempting to register "Neural-LLM," "Power Agents," any product name in the family, or confusingly similar marks as trademarks or service marks in any jurisdiction; and
- Defamatory or obscene contexts — using Neural-LLM's marks in a defamatory, obscene, or otherwise objectionable manner that damages the marks' reputation or goodwill.
5.1 Domain and Social Handle Policy
Domain names and social media handles that incorporate Neural-LLM's marks are exclusively reserved for Neural-LLM and its authorized agents. Neural-LLM owns neural-llm.com and the official VS Code Marketplace publisher identity for Power Claude. Cybersquatting — registering domain names or handles that incorporate Neural-LLM's marks with bad-faith intent to profit — is a violation of the Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act (15 U.S.C. § 1125(d)) and analogous laws in other jurisdictions. Neural-LLM will actively pursue cancellation, transfer, or injunctive relief for infringing domains and handles through UDRP proceedings or court action.
6. Requesting Authorization for Unlisted Uses
Third parties who wish to use Neural-LLM's marks in a manner not expressly permitted under Section 4 and not expressly prohibited under Section 5 may request written authorization by contacting Neural-LLM at with:

- A sample or mockup of the proposed use where available; and
- Contact information for the requesting party.
Neural-LLM will review requests in good faith but is under no obligation to grant authorization. Silence does not constitute authorization. Authorization granted for one use does not carry over to other uses.
7. Reporting Trademark Infringement
