Tangibly can be used to simplify proof in litigation, show increased enterprise value to investors or acquirers, as well as manage compliance with HR, NDA, and other documents used every day. Our innovative platform provides an efficient process that allows for working smarter, resulting in protection and peace of mind. Welcome to a new world of IP management.

What Motivates Us

Trade secret management is a complex legal topic where the laws, both local and federal, are varying shades of gray and the case law is coming fast and furious (~2,600 cases in 2021). The law requires you need to demonstrate ‘best efforts to maintain confidentiality of your information’ in order to be considered a trade secret. What does that even mean?

And it turns out that most IP lawyers are busy filing patents so have left trade secrets to the litigators. That’s right, the only real contingent of lawyers that care about trade secrets are those you call AFTER there’s a problem. It's a hard truth, unfortunately.

And for many years, companies and law firms have used tools and platforms to manage their patent, trademark, and copyright portfolios. Trade secrets didn’t get the same levels of support and visibility. With growing litigation and damages from trade secret theft, an unmet need for an easy to use management tool is being increasingly and painfully felt.

Tangibly gives trade secrets the love and respect they deserve.
