Systems and methods for the enhanced use of patent protection monitors in patent portfolio management are proposed. In one example embodiment, a method includes providing, via a website or other communication portal, a patent monitoring tool including at least one interactive user interface. A user identifies a patent for automated monitoring at a patent office. A user can select engagement of an automated advisory monitors for the identified patent. The automated monitors may include a no-assignment-filed monitor, an assignment-changed monitor, and a patent-fee monitor. The patent-fee monitor may automatically initiate a patent revival process in the event a patent fee is not paid. |
