In response to a query including a proposed trademark and or more search parameters, a system receives search results, each including at least one ascertainable text-based property and a numeric score indicative of a measure of similarity between the search result and the proposed trademark. To generate an interactive graphical representation of the search results, the system (i) generates a reference indicator for the proposed trademark at a reference location in the interactive graphical representation, (ii) determines, for each of the search results, a first offset along a first axis and a second offset along a second axis relative to the reference location using the numeric score and the at least one ascertainable text-based property of a respective search result, and (iii) generates, for each of the search results, a search result indicator in the interactive graphical representation, in accordance with the determined first and second offsets.
