How Paravant works
- Automatic USPTO docketing. Enter your correspondent email addresses. Paravant matches them against USPTO data, downloaded every 24 hours, and imports your live marks in minutes, even for thousands of marks. It covers all USPTO records back to 1870. How docketing works
- Deadlines that close themselves when a responsive filing appears. Reminders continue through grace periods, and Petition to Revive deadlines and TTAB events are tracked too.
- Client updates from your firm. White-labeled email from your domain and SMS from your own number (clients opt in), a client portal opened by a private link, a message log and BCC. Client communication
- AI drafting: Office Action Drafting and the AI Trademark Assistant.
- Weekly business development leads.
- Your team: one admin, per-member permissions, a shared dashboard. Team collaboration
- Zapier on every plan. The native Clio integration and the Intake Center are coming late 2026.

Why firms choose Paravant
- Trademark-first, not a full practice OS. If your bottleneck is USPTO docketing and client follow-up — not time entry, trust accounting, or CLM — Paravant stays focused on that work.
- Docket rebuilds from correspondent emails in minutes. No serial-by-serial import for marks that already list your firm at the USPTO.
- Client reminders from your domain and SMS, plus a password-free portal that surfaces every mark, status, and the most important due dates first — so fewer "where's my application?" calls. See client communication.
- Live Office Action Drafting and the AI Trademark Assistant, plus weekly leads.
- Only live marks are billed. Solo, Firm, or Scale. See pricing.
When Juerra may be the better fit
If you want one system for trademarks and patents, built-in time/billing/trust accounting, Stripe invoicing, documents/e-sign as a primary workflow, or a contracts/CLM module, Juerra covers that practice-management stack and Paravant does not. Paravant is US-trademark docketing, client notifications, and trademark AI — not a full firm OS.
Switching to Paravant
Your USPTO marks come in from your correspondent emails, so there's no docket data to move. We import your client contacts at onboarding, or you can bring them in through Zapier, or from Clio once the native integration launches (coming late 2026). Most firms launch within days. There are no setup fees, switching is free, and billing doesn't start until your current contract ends. Read how Markavo docketed over 4,000 trademarks with Paravant.
Frequently asked questions
What is a good Juerra alternative for US trademark firms?
Paravant is trademark docketing software for US law firms. It imports your live marks from your USPTO correspondent emails, tracks deadlines automatically, sends client email and SMS from your firm's domain, and includes live AI office action drafting.
Does Paravant include time billing and invoicing like Juerra?
No. Paravant does not replace practice-management billing, trust accounting, or Stripe invoicing. Firms keep those in Clio or another system and connect workflows through Zapier (native Clio integration coming late 2026).
Does Paravant handle patents or contracts?
No. Paravant is USPTO trademarks only. It does not docket patents or run a contracts/CLM module.
How do client reminders and the portal work?
Paravant sends automated reminders by email from your firm's domain (for example tm.yourfirm.com) and by SMS from your firm's number when clients opt in. Clients open a private link (no password) to see all their trademarks, current status, and the most important due dates first.
How does Paravant import my trademarks?
Enter the email addresses your firm lists as USPTO correspondent. Paravant matches them against USPTO data, downloaded every 24 hours, and imports your live marks in a few minutes, even for thousands of marks.
