PATENT ANALYTIC SERVICES


Patent Landscape is a search to understand a particular technology area. Many companies order patent landscape to create an internal database of relevant patents revolving around the technology of interest. The trends that emerge from patent landscape can be very helpful for taking business decisions, R&D decisions, gaining insights about competitors, helping R&D team and to find out the white spaces in underlying technology.

The landscape analysis is most useful while developing a new product or at the time of research and development to identify the gaps in the area of interest. Often, patent landscape is clubbed with non-patent landscape to get a complete picture of the technology.

Our team can design a Patent Landscape report that provides executives, technologists, and investors with IP business intelligence about how and to what extent your competitors are protecting their innovations in critical areas of technology.

We start with a broad patent landscape and progressively refine the analytics at several levels of detail. This value-rich perspective provides the actionable insight you need to support strategic business and investment decisions and strengthen your patent portfolio.

Search Strategy

DATA EXTRACTION
All the patents in the specified technology domain are extracted. Identification of client’s purpose and collecting necessary patent documents are done. Background study is thoroughly done
DATA FILTRATION
Relevant patents are identified. Title & Abstract based analysis. Elimination of irrelevant patents
DATA EXTRACTION
Relevant forward- backward references of the relevant patents are extracted and added to the previous set of relevant patents
DATA ANALYSIS
Full text analysis and elimination of irrelevant patents are done
DATA CATEGORIZATION
Technology level and application level categorization of the patents is carried out.[IPC Class, US Class, CPC, ECLA]

PATENT PORTFOLIO ANALYSIS


The portfolio analysis is performed to identify the relevant strength of all patents within the portfolio and if need be to understand how and which of the patents in the given portfolio are potentially infringed by the existing products in the market. An effective portfolio analysis helps in identifying where the value is, in patent portfolio. Over the period, valuable patent assets can be “lost” in the complexity of the wider portfolio if worthless assets are maintained unnecessarily, and their true value through sale or licensing is never realized.

We offers customized Patent Portfolio Analysis services for companies. In a typical patent portfolio analysis our research team accomplishes the following strategy.

PATENT VALUATION


Patents are perhaps the most complex of the intellectual properties in a technical sense. Understanding the patented technology is a key element in providing accurate patent valuations. We strives to comprehensively understand your assets and specific situation before beginning our analysis. Once we have a thorough understanding of these important factors, we carefully conduct our research and analysis so that it captures all relevant inputs and considers all possible aspects necessary to provide you with accurate, useful and complete information.

Our consulting teams are made up of individuals with law, business and technical degrees. Together, they support your needs and goals through in-depth valuation and qualitative analysis developed using one or more of the following methodologies.

INFRINGEMENT ANALYSIS /CLAIM CHART MAPPING


AClaim Chart Mapping (Infringement Analysis report) is a highly detailed document that offers an argument explaining precisely how a certain product of a particular company arguably infringes upon a claim of the patent. Claim charts are prepared to determine and establish the extent of overlap between one or more claims of a patent and a product or technology.

Therefore infringement searches are conducted to find products already existing in market that may be using the patented technology. Our report includes claim to product mapping, to find the existing products using the patented technology.

IP Signals has team of subject matter experts to find out the things that may not look similar on the surface but might still be working in the same way. We believe it’s not about information availability; it’s about how you discover it. Infringement analysis needs in-depth analysis, reading within the lines to prove that product maps on to the claims of the client patents.

IP Signals prepare Infringement Analysis report (Claim Chart Mapping) to help corporates and inventors to figure out products that may be infringing on their patent portfolio.


MARKET INTELLIGENCE


Our market intelligence report helps our client to determine areas of research or analyze the growth in any technology. Further, IP Signals market intelligence report will enable you to be in loop with regard to any technology or corresponding to a particular player.
