Terrifio

Terrifio makes Markr, a dedicated virtual patent marking (VPM) automation platform. Automates the process of publishing and maintaining patent-to-product associations online for compliance with 35 U.S.C. § 287(a) under the America Invents Act. Without proper marking, courts have barred patent owners from recovering pre-notice infringement damages (NBER working paper, 2018, documents low VPM adoption despite legal benefits). Founded 2019 in London by Jim Gastle (25 years registered patent attorney). 2-person team, unfunded. Pricing from $49.99/month. SaaSAdviser: 5/5 from 10 reviews (no G2/Capterra coverage). Also developing ‘Validate’ client validation platform. VPM pages are hosted on terrifio.com — single point of failure if the company experiences downtime or shuts down. No direct VPM-only competitor found; broader IP management platforms (TriangleIP, Anaqua) include VPM as a feature within larger suites. Large companies (KnowBe4, P&G) maintain custom VPM pages. Markr targets companies without resources for custom pages or full IP suites.

Key Capabilities

• VPM page automation: Generates and maintains virtual patent marking web pages that associate products with patent numbers
• Patent-product mapping: AI-powered mapping of patents to products across portfolios
• Compliance tracking: Monitors patent status changes (grants, expirations) and updates marking pages accordingly

Pricing

Starting at $49.99/month (per SpotSaaS comparison).

Who It’s For

Designed for IP counsel at corporations with product patent portfolios, patent attorneys at IP boutiques, and startups/academics with patented technology. Most valuable for organizations with large patent portfolios where manual marking page maintenance is burdensome and compliance gaps risk damages claims.
