The Basic IPDAS License Agreement

 

IPDAS is licensed to an unlimited number of users.  Pricing is based on the number of full-time equivalent (FTE) timekeepers* at your firm.

• Term: three years – price is locked in for term
• Cancel without penalty after first or second anniversary
• Annual, all-inclusive rate

* Definition of a "Full-Time Equivalent Timekeeper"   A timekeeper is anyone who bills time. Unless an administrative staff person bills time, that individual should not be included in your "full-time equivalency" timekeeper count.   To determine "full-time equivalency", estimate how much time is spent prosecuting patents and trademarks as opposed to other IP work. For example, an attorney who litigates 50% of the time and prosecutes the other 50% would count as as 50 percent of a timekeeper for purposes of your timekeeper count.

• Integration with your docketing and document management systems
• Training
• Ongoing product and technical support
• Regular PTO/PCT updates
• Product enhancements

** Client is responsible for necessary travel expenses, but not labor costs, associated with installation and training.

Renewals

The IPDAS license may be renewed for subsequent three-year terms. The annual rate would be the lesser of the prevailing rate or no more than a 25% increase over the third-year rate in the previous three-year license agreement.

 

We will "true-up" your timekeeper count once a year just prior to the annual invoice.
