The problem

Trademark prosecution runs on a chain of statutory windows - opposition, Statement of Use, Section 8 and combined 8/9 maintenance - and a single missed date can abandon a registration.

The local-first solution

A deterministic, client-side calculator multiplies per-class fees and computes every statutory window by exact UTC calendar arithmetic, citing the controlling statute and rule, with nothing uploaded.

What it does

Total filing fee = per-class fee x number of classes (TEAS Plus or Standard, 37 CFR 2.6)

30-day publication-for-opposition window (15 U.S.C. 1063; 37 CFR 2.101/2.102)

Section 1(b) Notice of Allowance: 6-month SOU plus up to five extensions to 36 months (1051(d))

Section 8 continued-use window: 5th-6th anniversary, 6-month grace (1058)

Combined 8 and 9 renewal: 9th-10th anniversary, then every 10 years (1058, 1059)

First-action pendency shown as a user-confirmed operational estimate, not a deadline

Honest scope

Not legal advice; prosecution is fact-specific and office actions, suspensions, or refusals can extend or end any window. Per-class fees are year/schedule-indexed dated inputs you confirm against the current 37 CFR 2.6; only the fee multiplication and statutory calendar windows are exact.
