    — WHO THIS IS FOR

    For the work that demands rigor, defensibility, and accountability.

    Patent Attorneys & Agents

    You’re responsible for the quality of every search, every filing, and every opinion you put your name on. Whether you’re supporting prosecution, responding to an office action, or building an invalidity case, in this work, what you don’t find matters as much as what you do.

    In-house Legal / IP Counsel

    You’re managing a portfolio, advising the business, and making calls on what to file, what to abandon, and what to defend. You need intelligence that’s complete enough to act on and defensible enough to stand behind.

    Patent Offices & Government

    You’re conducting examination at scale and need prior art search that’s fast, comprehensive, and consistent. The quality of examination depends on the quality of the search.

    From examination to enforcement.

    IP.com offers software, analytics, and expert-delivered services.

    — Find and validate prior art

    For patent attorneys, agents, and patent offices conducting thorough search

    The quality of every opinion, filing, and examination decision starts with the quality of the search. These tools give you comprehensive prior art coverage across global patent and non-patent literature — so you find what keyword-only searches miss.

    — Defend and enforce your IP

    For IP counsel and attorneys managing litigation, invalidity, and enforcement

    When IP rights are challenged or need to be enforced, the intelligence behind your position has to be airtight. These tools surface prior art that challenges patent validity and identify whether third-party products are practicing your claims.

    — Manage and monitor your portfolio

    For in-house IP counsel and legal teams making strategic portfolio decisions

    A well-managed portfolio requires knowing what you own, what it’s worth, and how the competitive landscape is shifting. These tools give you the analytics to track it, clear the path before launch, and identify where the whitespace is.
