The work, not the feature list.

1. 01

   Build a first intangible asset register

   Start from the four lists you already have — entities, domains, repositories and trademarks — and turn them into a register with owners attached. What to record first, and what to deliberately leave until later.

2. 02

   Establish software chain of title

   Work from the repository back to the people, and from the people to the agreements. How to reconcile commit identities, define coverage windows, and treat the gaps you find without alarming everybody.

3. 03

   Define a Brand Asset Package

   Decide what belongs to a brand when the brand is sold: identity assets, technology, commercial rights and operating accounts — including the shared ones that will need a licence rather than an assignment.

4. 04

   Close contributor coverage gaps

   What to do when a contractor's contributions fall outside any assignment: confirmatory assignments, scope, timing, and why finding this early is worth an uncomfortable email.

5. 05

   Separate shared IP in a venture studio

   Model a shared core and venture-specific derivatives so a successful venture can leave without taking the engine, and without a rewrite in the week before closing.

6. 06

   Prepare for an IP due-diligence request

   What buyers and investors actually ask for, in what order, and how to produce a schedule and evidence pack from a maintained record instead of assembling one.

7. 07

   Domains and accounts: ownership versus custody

   Why the registrant, the account holder and the administrator are three facts, how to find the mismatches, and the order to fix them in.

8. 08

   Asset transfer, licence or novation

   The three ways something moves in a transaction, when each applies, and why a consent requirement should be identified weeks before it is needed.

The full text of each guide is being written and will publish here as it is finished. We would rather list what is coming than fill this page with eight articles nobody would finish reading.
