What Questel Equinox IPMS does
Equinox Law Firm covers the work of a patent practice: customisable case management with families and batch handling, access to 50+ online registers, document management through a Microsoft Office plugin, client portals where clients review, approve and comment on documents, smart correspondence templates with Gmail integration, budgets, disbursements, timesheets and invoicing exported to Xero or Sage, and pre-built or custom reports and dashboards. Tools include PCT Nationalization, EP Validation and Unitary Patent case creation. Equinox Corporate focuses on aligning a portfolio with business strategy. An inventor portal, Equinox Invention, captures ideas, a built-in law engine tracks key dates, and automated comparison keeps data in line with more than 100 official offices, including importing rights to create cases. It connects to Outlook and Gmail, offers single-tenant hosting and single sign-on, and links through an API Gateway to renewals, translations and filing services. Equinox Corporate+ is built on Salesforce for large corporates. Both editions download ready-made workflows from official office updates via the IP Law Portal, use AI agents and Questel's Qthena assistant, and run on ISO 27001 certified cloud security with DDoS protection and 99.9%+ uptime. They are available in English, French, German, Spanish, Japanese and Korean, with dedicated onboarding and data migration.
