Trademark docketing software

Docketing that never lets a date slip

Docketing is the backbone of an IP practice — and the place where mistakes are most expensive. IPBases computes your deadlines automatically, surfaces them early, and records every change in an audit trail you can defend.

The problem

Manual docketing is a liability

When deadlines live in a spreadsheet or someone's calendar, the practice carries silent risk: a formula that wasn't updated, a reminder that went to the wrong person, a date entered a year late. In IP, that risk has a name — malpractice exposure.

IPBases turns docketing into a system. Renewal and action dates are derived from the matter itself, tracked centrally, and shown to the right people before they fall due.

How the docket works

A docket that works for you, not the other way round

Automatic dates

Deadlines calculated from filing data — no manual date math, no stale formulas.

Early, tiered reminders

Upcoming actions surface well ahead of time, colour-coded from comfortable to critical.

Nothing falls through

Overdue items are impossible to miss on the dashboard and in the action center.

Actions per matter

Every action — response, publication, renewal — is logged against its trademark with owner and status.

Defensible audit trail

An append-only log records who changed a date and when, so you can always show your work.

Right person, right task

Role-based routing means the responsible attorney or paralegal actually sees the deadline.

Confidence

Sleep-at-night docketing

The point of good docketing software isn't features — it's confidence. IPBases is designed so that the safe path is the default path: dates are computed, reminders are automatic, and the audit trail is always on.

Self-hosted and perpetually licensed, it keeps that sensitive deadline data on infrastructure you control.
