Open the app, add an IRN and review Madrid events, countries, dates and proof links in one workspace.
A practical comparison for Madrid System professionals who need official records and a faster working layer.
What the existing tool/workflow does well
Compare live structured review with manual spreadsheet maintenance.
Where the workflow slows professionals down
The friction starts when the same portfolio must be reviewed repeatedly. Professionals lose time reopening records, comparing country status, finding the right proof link, copying dates and translating official-record review into a client-ready note.
What Madrid Radar accelerates
Madrid Radar does not compete with the official record. It accelerates the working layer around it:
- portfolio-level review,
- event and country filtering,
- refusal intelligence by jurisdiction,
- proof links attached to the relevant event,
- structured notes for client or internal updates.
Comparison table
| Aspect | Madrid Monitor / manual workflow | Madrid Radar | |---|---|---| | Data authority | Official public record / manual source | Structured workflow layer based on public records | | Review speed | Case by case | Portfolio dashboard and filters | | Proof links | Found manually | Kept next to the reviewed event | | Client updates | Manual copy-paste | Structured starting point | | Refusal review | Scattered by record | Centralized by case/country context | | Best use | Final official verification | Repeated monitoring and triage |
What Radar never does
Madrid Radar keeps WIPO as the official source, adds no legal conclusions, makes no outcome guarantees and keeps decisive points tied to official-record verification.
Best used together
Spreadsheets are flexible but become stale; Radar keeps the review layer closer to current public records and proof links.
