Capabilities That Sync Patent Family Members and Cited Art History
The advanced technology offered by SyncIDS allows patent matters and references to be syncable within any other matters in the system. Sync offers a variety of syncing/cross-citation options including by priority and/or subject matter relationship including document level synchronization.
SyncIDS features relationship mapping, a capability that identifies and syncs patent family members for automatic cross-citation purposes. In addition, patent attorneys and IP legal teams can create customized syncs to meet any client need. The software also provides Office Action monitoring, which notifies the legal team of any IDS needs.

All-In Package
The All-In Package is the most comprehensive plan! You never need to enter any data or file any IDSs. Ever. We enter your U.S. and foreign historical data into our proprietary database. We also automatically determine family and sync matters together. Tell us about your subject matter relationships to sync further, if required. Then, we keep your data up to date. For example, suppose one case receives a U.S. or Foreign Office Action. In that case, all related U.S. cases will automatically receive the art for IDS review/approval.
Legacy Data Migration
The SyncIDS proprietary legacy data migration process automatically creates matters in SyncIDS for the U.S. and most foreign application numbers you provide. SyncIDS migrates in any previously cited U.S. patents/publications, foreign patents publications, and NPL data. Matters can also be auto-synced according to family and/or subject matter.

SyncIDS offers a weekly Office Action Sweep Service that sweeps pending U.S. matters. Some examples:
