About Terrifio

Markr was built to solve a common challenge faced by patent owners and professionals: the burdensome task of maintaining up-to-date virtual patent marking webpages. Despite the undeniable value of virtual patent marking, its adoption has remained relatively low due to the significant administrative effort required to stay compliant.

Jim, our co-founder and an experienced Canada/U.S. Patent Agent, recognized this disconnect. He saw that many companies were either deterred from, or frustrated with, trying to fully leverage virtual patent marking because of the time-consuming and complex processes involved.

Driven to find a solution, Jim envisioned a way to automate key aspects of the process. His goal was to simplify both the initial setup and, more importantly, the ongoing management of virtual patent marking, allowing more patent owners and professionals to benefit from this valuable strategy without the administrative strain.

Markr was created with this mission in mind—to streamline virtual patent marking, making it easier and more efficient for companies to implement and maintain.
