“First To File’s Electronic File Room helps us to achieve several strategic goals, including significantly reduced reliance on paper,  increased global collaboration and efficiency, and higher-quality intellectual property rights.”
Matt Goodwin, Chief Patent Counsel, Unilever

For today’s global corporations, IP is a key asset. All too often, the tools needed to manage it are outdated an ineffective. Prior to installing First To File, many of our clients still relied on email as the primary document management system, creating significant administrative burden. Many shipped paper copies across the globe, creating serious business delays and incurring unneeded costs. Yet others found that all too often, critical paper documents simply went missing, causing serious business issues.

First To File solves all of these issues while giving you access to your IP, anytime and from anywhere, safely and securely. Our customized workflow allows you to quickly create a system that mirrors your unique business process for rapid and efficient adoption. With First To File, our customers unlock new efficiencies, scale their practices rapidly, balance workloads and enabling greater collaboration between IP professionals no matter where they are located.

We understand the needs of patent professionals who manage global IP organizations. We have crafted a solution that enables you to reduce risk, increase efficiency, save money and compete more effectively in a global marketplace.
