IDS MANAGEMENT

Simplified, Streamlined, Reliable

Take control of your firm’s citation management with automation that keeps every reference organized, connected, and compliant across all cases, families, and subject matter groups.

Centralized Citation Management

Record all references — cited or to be cited — in one place, automatically flowing across related cases and family members.

Efficient Document Linking

Attach PDFs of foreign patents, NPLs, and translations to citations once, and links automatically appear in every case that cites the same reference.

Effortless Cross-Citation

Simplify the complex. Manage citations and cross-cite foreign references and non-patent literature (NPLs) with accuracy and confidence.

Complete Visibility

Track the status of each reference to ensure thorough cross-citing and reduce risk.

Bulk Import Made Easy

Import references from spreadsheets, MS Word tables, PTO SB-08s, or USPTO databases with just a few clicks.

Automated Reference Downloads

Retrieve PDFs of foreign patents and translations from Espacenet individually or in bulk.

One-Click Patent Center Upload

IPDAS uploads the IDS and all associated PDFs — foreign patents, NPLs, and translations — to Patent Center in a single step.

Generate and E-file IDS Documents

Create official USPTO IDS documents and automatically upload with attached citation PDFs.

Fast, accurate, and fully compliant submissions give your team complete confidence in the IDS process.
