About the service

Patent research is conducted to assess whether a development infringes on patent rights, enhance the product competitiveness against counterparts, and safeguard innovations. Information from the report aids in planning enterprise development and modernization, identifying consumer requirements, and enhancing product quality. It also helps to select optimal conditions for introducing new products and addressing issues related to protecting developments from competitors. The objectives of patent research depend on practical needs and are formulated by the entity conducting the research (section 4.3 of the GOST).

Evaluating the technical level identifies market counterparts and the risk of their emergence, conducted either before or during development to preempt the creation of a solution that cannot be patented.

Conducting patent research at the technical level encompasses the entire range of available scientific and technical information in the field. The depth of examination covers a span of 10–15 years, analyzing homogeneous objects, competitors' scientific and technical works, and industry situations.

We are researching:

Similar products on the market with functionality akin to the innovation;
Known technical solutions used in the production of similar products;
Outcomes of the research and development endeavors of industry leaders;
Evolution and direction of changes in consumer attributes of similar products, as well as consumer demands;
Current patent landscape and nuances of local regulations;
Industry trends relevant to the client's sector of operation.

Following the completion of our work, we provide a report containing recommendations regarding the feasibility and prospects of developing the technical solution. If the product is deemed inherently non-competitive, we offer suggestions on areas for improvement and directions for further development.
