Subject matter experts utilize advanced deep web search techniques to generate initial claim charts
LitAgility’s Product Search quickly and accurately reviews, analyzes, and charts evidence from publicly available data to uncover potential infringement, even where it is not immediately apparent. This allows you to assess the level of infringement by a product or group of products more efficiently and determine the proper course of action.
LitAgility’s technical experts conduct product searches to detect infringement. Typical product searches involve the following steps:
- Client shares asserted patents and details of the target companies and/or products
- Technical experts study the patents, understand key features that need to be studied and identify sources where such information could be present
- Search experts run deep web searches in identified sources. IT experts from LitAgility are typically involved in crawling and scraping of data from identified sources.
- Reference information is downloaded and claim charts are developed
The information about products is usually gathered from public sources such as websites, product manuals, marketing materials, training content, conference publications, and regulatory websites where disclosure is required and is more relevant to the patent claims. After gathering the information, we create detailed claim charts that map claim elements to corresponding product features
Client deliverables:
- PowerPoint/Excel/Word report containing the claim charts
- Cited references in pdf form
- Access to preliminary results and charting capability with evidence by claim element via BridgeIndex (Additional charges may apply).
- Access to final results using an intuitive interface with rich text evidence organized by claim element within BridgeIP™. This makes reviewing, annotating, commenting, and exporting to templated charts easy (Additional charges may apply).
