Transform How You Manage Your IP Portfolio with Equinox IP Management Software

What do we mean by “all-in-one" when we discuss our Equinox IP management software?  

Comprehensive Asset Management 

First and foremost, Equinox IP management software enables management of a wide variety of assets, including trademarks, patents, designs, copyrights, domain names, and related matters such as contracts, opposition cases, and litigation cases. This all-in-one approach ensures that every aspect of your IP portfolio is centralized and easily accessible.

Equinox offers extensive customization to match your processes and workflows. You can tailor built-in matter and case categories, create new categories and subcategories for specific projects, and configure dashboards and reporting tools.

These features provide a complete IP management ecosystem, allowing organizations to centralize operations, improve efficiency, and enhance collaboration. 

To enable users to access official office data from their intellectual property management tool, we have connected the data in our Orbit IP intelligence software and Markify Clearance & Watch Platform to Equinox.  

By using the PTO import feature, you can create new cases and compare your portfolio against official records. Equinox can pull through the title, history dates and numbers, subcategories, applicants, and inventors. Plus, for trademarks, the system can pull the image and goods and classes information, generating matching cases to reduce administrative time. 

Once a week, all active patent and trademark cases on your system can be compared against the latest official office data (via the PTO data comparison feature), highlighting any mismatches, and providing you with options to accept data suggestions. Our handy dashboard shows you:  

• Which cases it couldn’t find a match for 
• Which cases it matched and have outstanding differences between your data on Equinox and the official office data 
• Which cases have no differences between Equinox and the official office data
