Competitive intelligence is a treasure trove for successful business organization and structure, providing a wealth of information for making key business decisions surrounding intellectual property. The challenge with competitive intelligence lies in comprehending the bulk of available intellectual property information and condensing it into a robust, usable blueprint for the specific needs of a particular company. At P&A, we study behavioral signals and use tools that remove asymmetry common in the patent landscape, allowing us to pinpoint important intellectual property information for a particular use case.  

We bring a unique perspective to the industry with ipAnalytx, a state of the art patent analytics tool developed by members of our firm, along with other patent data sources to provide clients with unparalleled intelligence for a variety of business purposes. With our in-house analytics system, we provide our clients with details from a data source that we have intimate knowledge of, rather than relying on sources from third parties. As such, we have firsthand insight to behavioral signals within the intellectual property realm that helps guide our clients with intellectual property business decisions. For instance, we assist with identifying potential licensees, determining which patent assets to license, sell, or acquire, and benchmarking competitor patents against a subject portfolio to identify strategic advantages and risks.
