Automated USPTO Deadline Tracking
Every morning, WebRun signs into the USPTO account portal, checks each tracked application for an approaching response or maintenance deadline, logs the due date and application number to an Airtable tracker, and emails you a reminder while there's still time to respond.
How do I track USPTO trademark and patent deadlines automatically?
WebRun checks your USPTO filings every morning for an approaching response or maintenance deadline, logs the application number and due date to an Airtable tracker, and emails you a reminder while there's still time to act, so a trademark or patent deadline never slips past unnoticed.
- Response deadlines are tracked automatically instead of by memory
- Every filing's due date lives on one shared Airtable tracker
- A reminder lands in your inbox while there's still time to respond
Built for trademark attorneys · patent attorneys · IP paralegals · in-house counsel

Questions, answered
Will it file a response for me?
No. WebRun only tracks deadlines and reminds you. It never files a response, pays a fee, or submits anything to the USPTO on its own.
How far ahead does it warn me?
It checks every tracked application each morning and flags anything with an approaching due date, so a deadline shows up on the tracker and in your inbox well before it's due.
What happens once I respond?
It reads the live status in USPTO each morning, so once a deadline is met the Airtable row updates and it drops off the reminder email.
