World Premiere at INTA 2013: the IP CostCalculator - "IPCC"
MUNICH and NEW YORK, May 6, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
- Five new features making the world's Number 1 even better
Brandstock is bringing the all-new IP CostCalculator - "IPCC" - to INTA 2013. After
having its world premiere at the IP trade fair, the software tool will be available for
general purchase in September.
What's new about the IPCC?
Its user interface, its interior structure and - for buyers of its premium versions -
five mission-critical features.
Since being launched in 2002, the IPCC - created by the Munich-based BRANDSTOCK
SERVICES AG - has brought cost and operational accountability and competitiveness to the
world of intellectual property. These capabilities have joined ease of use and verified
and verifiable results in making the IPCC the most widely used tool in the trademark
sector.
To enhance the IPCC's cost-crunching and results tracking and optimization capacities,
Brandstock has completely re-engineered it. Especially innovative and revolutionary are
five new features. These are available for users of the IPCC's premium versions.
- Benchmarking module
This module enables your company to compare the fees that it is currently paying for
IP services with those levied industry-wide and in your jurisdiction of interest. The IPCC
also offers operation-specific averages and best-in-market figures.
- Central verification of official fees
Instead of the "estimates" supplied by other products, the IPCC has always relied on
exact figures supplied by its network of designated agents. The need to achieve true
comparability through standardization of terms and scopes has led Brandstock to centralize
the fee reporting by setting up a dedicated unit.
The advantage for you: access to a world-spanning, single-source of such fees.
- WIPO fees - built in!
The new IPCC incorporates - as the first tool worldwide - the WIPO fees - accomplished
via a Web-based feed - in its calculations. There is therefore no need to open an
additional window to access the WIPO Fee Calculator. This is now included in the new IPCC
version.
- Currency reporter and converter - built in!
The IPCC's calculations are performed in the currency of your choice - US dollar, Euro
or Japanese yen. Their rates of exchange are always up-to-the-second accurate.
- Exportability of results as an Excel spreadsheet
"The way to succeed in today's ever-more competitive IP world is to maximize
cost/output ratios and tracking and benchmarking capabilities. The IP CostCalculator
represents one of IP's most widely-availed upon ways of doing such. Our tool's new
features will enhance this position of market leadership," states Volker Spitz, Brandstock
CEO.
"Today's market demands absolute transparency. This is the only way to build trust and
strong relationships. The new IPCC delivers exact figures - instead of estimates - and
supplies the names behind the numbers!"
Kersten Bassow, Brandstock, Head of Department IPCC, explains the IPCC's uniquely
strong appeal.
Key Facts:
The IP CostCalculator
is unbeatably quick and comprehensive
because it provides within a few seconds a report on the cost of IP service provision
for any and all transactions.
is unbeatably accurate
The reports are based on real-life fees and conditions, and not on the 'averages' and
'assumptions' used by other programs. That means exact figures instead of estimates!
offers unbeatable, one-click access to our IP directory, one of the world's largest
networks of IP associates
offers unbeatable savings
The IPCC can be used to compare fees charged by attorneys in more than 180 countries.
The IPCC also presents the attorneys' standard and special-customer rates.
