Link

Description

Sun IP’s Patent Cost Forecaster forecasts the patent lifecycle costs of individual patents or portfolios, with adjustable cost assumptions and filing routes. Sun IP states that clients pay no subscription or additional charge for the tool. Access and a demonstration are requested through its team.

Strengths

• Forecasting for individual patents and portfolios.
• Customizable cost assumptions and reusable filing-route models.
• Shareable reports and access without an additional subscription for clients.

Limitations

• Access requires contacting the team; the calculator is not presented as an immediately open public form.
• The explicitly documented free access applies to Sun IP clients; professional services have their own pricing.
