Heirlume is on a mission to democratize brand protection - with the ultimate vision of making it as easy and affordable as registering a domain name. For enterprises, Heirlume empowers marketing/branding and legal teams to work together to search, file, and defend trademarks more efficiently—and affordably. Marketing teams at large companies are continuously ideating new brand and product names, logos, and taglines. But the process of vetting and protecting these trademarks is expensive, slow, and error-prone. Heirlume is a platform built for marketing and legal teams to manage this workflow in one workspace. Built-in consultation with Google and former USPTO examiners, our one-of-a-kind platform is continuously updated to reflect changes to trademark law and practice: the result? Heirlume performs better than the best lawyer... at a fraction of the cost. And the workflow between marketing and legal has never been easier! Heirlume is building a variety of tools in the trademark/ IP space. For Web3, these tools can be leveraged for detecting counterfeit or copycat NFTs, and also help creators protect their work.

SAM turns unstructured social media into actionable insight and awareness. It also operates a social media management platform for newsrooms. The company allows newsrooms to curate, collaborate, search, annotate, verify, and process around social content, as well as publish and tell stories with social content. When the unexpected occurs, every second count - millions of dollars are often lost in just the first few minutes after an emergency. Having accurate and relevant data on the location and impact of an emergency event as it unfolds is of paramount importance to those in corporate security, public safety, and emergency response. However, obtaining this information using traditional news media and data analysts is expensive, slow, and prone to error. SAM Inc. has developed a novel tool which utilizes artificial intelligence (AI) to detect the location of emergency events based on social media chatter. Their proprietary algorithm scans millions of social media posts to detect events such as fire, flooding, tornado, or terrorist attacks, at their earliest stages based on unstructured social media chatter. Following the detection of an event, we use AI and Natural Language Processing (NLP) to verify the source and triangulate location. This information is then provided to decision-makers so they can take appropriate action quickly and monitor the situation as it unfolds in time and space, minimizing the impact on business operations and risk to personnel. When the unexpected happens, every second counts and SAM provides minutes. SAM was founded in 2013 and is headquartered in Edmonton, AB, Canada.
