IP and Keyword-Phrase Monitoring and Alert services

Patent and key word and phrase search monitoring services, often called patent watch services, are tools and expert services designed to track new patent filings, trade publications, changes in IP legal status and research being done.

This helps businesses stay ahead of competitors and potent competition to avoid infringement and highlight opportunities.

Searches by the services can be targeted by competitor names, market categories, countries and specific technologies that are mentioned in, USPTO submissions, research papers at conferences, trade publications, global patent submissions and changes, IP maintenance fee renewal alerts.
