Solutions
For IP and R&D teams
A governed system of record for every idea, every dataset and every piece of know-how produced across the organization.
The IP you produce every day
The intellectual property assets produced every day.
Innovation moves faster than the formal intellectual property system. Long before any filing, your teams produce code, designs, experimental data, specifications and know-how, continuously, across departments and sites. These assets have value, while their documentation often stays inconsistent.
The day a dispute, an audit, or a competitor's patent raises the question "what did we have, and since when?", shared drives and email threads make the case hard to demonstrate. Trade secret protection rests on demonstrating reasonable measures. Prior personal possession rests on verifiable dates.
Ipocamp gives your IP and R&D teams a single, governed platform to timestamp this evidence the moment it's created. The fingerprint is published and the file is transferred, encrypted, to the storage set by your plan.
Governance
Built to be deployed
The controls your security, legal and IT teams expect, before approving one more tool.
Roles and access policies
Permissions define who can timestamp, review and retrieve evidence. They are structured by team, by project and by business unit.
Single sign-on
Log in through your identity provider via SAML or OIDC, two login standards, with provisioning and deprovisioning through the systems you already run.
Chained audit log
Every action is recorded in an unalterable log: who did what, when, with demonstrable integrity, exportable for your audits.
Controlled data residency
Encrypted files stay in the storage and jurisdiction you designate. The fingerprint is published to allow verification.
Spaces per entity
Each subsidiary or division has its own space, its own users and its own history, while sharing the group's policy.
Quotas per team
Timestamping credits allocated per user or per division keep the budget predictable and usage transparent.
Program
Managing trade secrets at scale
Protecting a secret relies on a consistent discipline. The judge looks at whether you took reasonable measures, and whether you can prove what the secret was, and since when.
Defend through prior existence
The same evidence supports prior personal possession and enables defensive publication: submitting your work as prior art to prevent a third party from patenting what your teams have already invented.
Procurement, security, legal
Your evaluators' questions
What comes up in tool review, addressed upfront.
Confidentiality
What do you see of our files?
The SHA-256 fingerprint is computed at the time of deposit. The file is transferred, encrypted, to the storage set by your plan and its content stays confidential.
Access
How do people log in?
Through your identity provider, via SAML or OIDC, two login standards, with an optional additional factor.
Audit
Can activity be audited?
Yes: an unalterable chained log, viewable and exportable by your security and compliance teams.
Reversibility
How does reversibility work?
Certificates are verified using open standards, independently of Ipocamp. Your evidence stays verifiable after the contract ends.
Deployment
Multiple subsidiaries?
Yes: one space per entity, separate policies and audit trails, shared group-level governance.
Costs
How do we control the budget?
Credit quotas per user and per team, with real-time visibility into consumption.
