FROM ERIK'S DESK

Artificial Intelligence has been in the news a lot lately, with plenty of coverage about both the benefits and harms of A.I. We believe in learning about new technologies so that we can understand them and learn more about how our client's might be affected by them practically and legally. With that in mind, we recently launched ChatTM - an A.I. powered tool for answering trademark questions. What makes this tool unique is that it has been trained primarily on our EMP&A content - thousands of blog posts and articles, transcripts from hundreds of videos and podcasts, and the Building a Bold Brand book. As such, ChatTM has a depth of knowledge that might be unmatched for a free online trademark tool.


Give it a try at www.chat-tm.com and let us know what you think!

Understanding how to calculate your trademark renewal deadlines is extremely important to minimize risk, maximize peace of mind, and avoid scammers. Erik breaks it down for you here.
