Frequently asked questions

Intellectual property (IP) solutions deliver IP intelligence and insights that help organizations search, manage, analyze, protect, and optimize patents and other IP assets. These solutions support patent search, portfolio analysis, standard essential patent (SEP) licensing strategy, prosecution analytics and monitoring, and competitive benchmarking to help businesses safeguard innovation and reduce legal and business risk. 

Patent search focuses on finding relevant prior art, technical disclosures, and global patent filings. Patent analytics goes further by analyzing portfolio strength, competitor activity, legal activity and disputes, and market positioning. Search supports individual filings, while analytics supports long-term IP strategy and investment decisions. 

IP analytics tools evaluate patent quality, citation impact, technology trends, and competitor activity. By turning complex patent data into structured insights, these platforms help organizations benchmark portfolios, identify gaps, prioritize R&D investments, and make more informed licensing or acquisition decisions. 

Standard essential patents (SEPs) are patents required to comply with industry technical standards. Organizations involved in telecommunications, electronics, and other standards-driven industries use SEP analysis tools to identify licensing obligations, assess portfolio strength, analyze standards contributions and essentialityand manage compliance risks. 

Patent prosecution tools analyze examiner behavior, approval trends, and historical filing data. These insights help attorneys refine claims, anticipate objections, and support a more informed application strategy. Monitoring tools can also track updates from patent offices to ensure timely responses and more strategically aligned filings.

  • Corporate IP and R&D teams
