2023 Updates
October Product Updates
IP Forecaster: new phase filters
You can now filter your forecasts and receive only the costs you want. Simply open the settings window when doing your forecast and turn off any costs you don’t want to see.
IP Forecaster: Bypass Route Finder
If you know the route you want to see forecasted, you don’t need the Route Finder screen. So, we’ve given you the ability to identify your route and skip straight to the forecast results.
IP Forecaster: Improved Results Layout
We’ve improved the grouping and names of the sections within the forecast output. It is easy to see which route was selected, and the results have clear headings and logical groupings based on the filing route.
IP Forecaster: New Home Page
We are creating an entirely new home page specifically designed for forecasting. Quickly access saved forecasts or recently run forecasts. Stay tuned – many more updates are coming in this area over the next couple of weeks.
September Product Updates
IP Forecaster: Improved Forecast Setup
When we introduced our multi-country forecasting option, we turned off the setup feature on the forecast request screen. It’s now back and ready for action! It’s also collapsed, so it doesn’t take up valuable screen real estate until you need it.
IP Forecaster: Filing Routes for Law Firm Fees
Feedback from clients has been clear that there needs to be flexibility to assign law firm fees to filing routes. We now default all fees to being applicable for all routes, but you can easily override that option and set a custom fee for different filing routes.

IP Forecaster: Easily Share Forecasts Via Email
You can now share forecasts via email. Enter one or more email addresses, select what you want to be sent, and provide a message, and you are good to go!
IP Forecaster: Save and Reuse forecasts
We’ve made it easier to save and reuse forecasts. Simply give your forecast a name so that you can use it later, or take an existing forecast, modify it, and give it a new name.
IP Forecaster: Client Discount Improvements
We’ve improved the presentation of client discounts in the forecast results. Easily see which fees have discounts and amounts before and after the discount.
IP Forecaster: Improved Client Maintenance
We’ve updated our client screen to simplify budget maintenance and firm selection. The Discount and Law Firm features are collapsed by default and can be expanded and accessed whenever needed. We’ve also made each feature work the same as our standard fee setup screens.
IP Forecaster: Export To PDF
MS Excel is nice, but sometimes you need to export data in other formats. This week, we’ve given you some more options. Now, in addition to MS Excel, you can export forecasts as PDF files, giving you an easy way to share an unmodifiable version of your forecasts.
IP Forecaster: Export To MS Word
Why stop with MS Excel and PDF? We’ve also given you the ability to export to MS Word. Once in MS Word, you can easily add, remove, or modify the content however you want.
IP Forecaster: Better Workflow
We are making the system smarter to avoid asking questions that don’t need to be asked. Doing an EP filing with coverage in Spain? We know that the only option is the traditional route, so, we take you right to the results without showing the Route Finder.
IP Forecaster: Summary and Detail Views
There are times when you need details, and there are times when you only need an overview. When you export to MS Word or PDF, you can select whether you want to receive the summary, the detail, or both. This makes it easy to share forecast details internally and then create a summary that can be shared with a client.
IP Forecaster: Bug Fixes
New features are important, but we’re also focused on eliminating bugs and usability issues within IP Forecaster. Here’s what we fixed this week:
- We fixed an issue where extra questions were being asked for single-country forecasts
- An issue was resolved where new law firm users didn’t have permission to modify client fees.
- We fixed an issue causing an error on the Filing Route screen when only one route was displayed.
- We updated the labels on the setup for law firms to change references from company to firm.
- We expanded the grace period amount field size to fix an issue capturing trademark grace periods.
