What problem does it solve? IP assets lapse when renewal deadlines, maintenance fees, and use declarations are missed. This Skill maintains a deadline register for trademarks, patents, copyrights, designs, and domains so nothing falls through the cracks. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Deadline Reports: Surface what's renewing in the next 30/60/90/180 days, grouped by urgency (lapsed, due soon, upcoming, agent-managed, unknown). - Asset Management: Add new assets interactively, record maintenance filings and fee payments, and sync with IP management systems like Anaqua or Clarivate. - Portfolio Audits: Run health checks covering deadline hygiene, registration gaps, use-in-commerce questions for §8-approaching marks, ownership inconsistencies, and unwatched marks. - Use Case: A paralegal runs a 90-day report before quarter-end and finds a trademark's §8 Declaration of Use entering its grace period, then records the filing once the attorney confirms it. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to show all IP deadlines coming up in the next 90 days using the portfolio skill.
