IP Toolbox · Workflow automation

Kill the unbillable grind: IDS, ADS, fees, and MPEP.

Toolbox automates the tedious USPTO busywork and validates it before you file, so a Kind-Code typo doesn't quietly cost you a patent or a 400-day trip through pre-examination limbo.

The problem

The busywork is where patents quietly die.

IDS prep, ADS forms, fee math, deadlines, MPEP lookups: none of it is billable, all of it is mandatory, and a single clerical slip can mean unenforceability or a hundred-plus-day petition. It is the perfect place to automate.

The '20-minute IDS' means hunting Kind Codes and publication dates across global families, where one slip can render a patent unenforceable.

Toolbox auto-assembles IDS and ADS forms with the metadata filled in and validated.

How Toolbox works

Automate the busywork, validate the filing.

IDS & ADS automation

Forms that fill and check themselves.

Toolbox assembles IDS and ADS forms with publication dates, Kind Codes, and applicant data populated and validated, turning the per-filing grind into a quick review.

  • Auto-populated Kind Codes and dates
  • De-duplicated reference lists
  • ADS generation and correction
  • Validation before submission

Fees & deadlines

Never miss a date or miscount a fee.

Compute USPTO fees and track the deadlines that matter, so budget conversations and docket management start from accurate numbers instead of a spreadsheet.

  • Fee calculation
  • Deadline tracking
  • Entity-status awareness
  • Client-ready summaries

MPEP search

Answers from the manual, instantly.

Search MPEP rules in plain language and get the relevant section without leaving your workflow. No more tab-hopping through the manual mid-response.

  • Plain-language MPEP search
  • Section-level references
  • In-workflow answers
  • Always current

Validation

Catch the clerical errors that cost months.

Improper dependencies, antecedent slips, and formatting mistakes trigger long pre-examination delays. Toolbox checks for them before you file, not after the petition.

  • Claim-dependency checks
  • Antecedent-basis flags
  • Formatting validation
  • A pre-file error report
