Patent litigation finance
Reduce investment risks with sharper patent due diligence. From early screening to full underwriting support, we help teams assess whether a patent is worth the investment.
The Challenge
Identify which assets are best suited for financing.
Many of our clients engage us before they embark on patent enforcement.
Notably, litigation finance firms and patent monetization teams use our services as part of their patent due diligence and underwriting process to evaluate and de-risk opportunities before committing resources.
01
Prioritize strong IP
Diligence windows can be tight and limited visibility into which patents truly warrant deeper investment can lead to misallocated resources.
02
Assess validity risk
Overlooked invalidation risks can undermine both the patent and the investment behind it. Early and thorough identification of invalidation risks are critical.
03
Infringement clarity
Establishing clear links between claims and real-world products is often complex, making it harder to confidently evaluate the strength of an infringement claim.
WHERE WE HELP
Support across key decision points
We provide support into the due diligence process at critical stages, helping teams screen opportunities, assess invalidity risk, and assess enforceability before capital is deployed.
Patent Due Diligence
Streamline your patent due diligence processes
Make faster, more confident investment decisions. Each service is designed to answer a specific question your investment decision depends on.
01
Screen
QuickSearch
Surface obvious threats before investing on further diligence spend.
A quick, preliminary search designed to flag patents with obvious prior art exposure. We scan the most likely search spaces and provide an “early read” on whether significant validity threats exist. This triage tool meant to give you a fast, informed signal on whether to proceed with deeper patent due diligence steps.
What you get
- Key prior art references identified
- Claims mapping charts with an initial assessment of technical relevance and strength
- Recommendation on whether a full search is warranted
When you need it
Ideal for a high-volume deal flows and bigger portfolios where not every patent warrants full diligence spend.
02
Stress-test
Patent Invalidity Search
Comprehensive invalidity search to identify claim vulnerabilities.
A full invalidity search includes a deep dive across patents, technical publications, product documentation, standards, and other non-patent sources often missed by automated tools. These focused, in-depth searches are meant to test patent strength and uncover critical claim gaps and weaknesses.
What you get
- Structured report with the most relevant prior art references
- Detailed claims mapping charts
- Search led and reviewed by U.S. patent attorneys or patent agents
When you need it
High-value opportunities where the investment thesis hinges on patent strength.
03
Validate Infringement
Evidence of Use / Claims Mapping
Confirm evidence of use to ensure strong infringement position.
Evidence of Use charts that maps claims to real-world products, systems, or standards, grounding the infringement claims in provable, defensible evidence.
What you get
- Patent-to-product claims mapping to help IP counsel assess infringement position
- Comprehensive search across product documentation, datasheets, standards disclosures, marketing materials
Additional Capabilities
- Product or device teardowns when published disclosures are insufficient to prove imfringement.
- Patent-to-Standard Mapping to support SEP matters.
Where we help
Streamline your patent due diligence processes
We provide support into the due diligence process at critical stages, helping teams screen opportunities, assess invalidity risk, and assess enforceability before capital is deployed.
Screen
Surface validity risks early before committing to full diligence spend.
Not every matter warrants a full diligence investment. For firms evaluating large portfolios, early triage is critical to avoid spending time and capital on weak assets.
Our QuickSearch is a rapid, preliminary search designed to flag patents with clear prior art exposure. We focus on the highest-probability search spaces to deliver an early read on material validity risks, helping you decide, quickly and with confidence, whether a deeper diligence process is justified.
What you get
- Claim charts mapping key prior art to core claims
- Top prior art references with brief technical summaries
- Clear go/no-go and next-step search recommendations
- Results delivered within 5 days
When you need it
When you need a fast, defensible read to triage opportunities before committing to full diligence.
RELATED SERVICE
Stress-test
Stress-test patent strength with a full invalidity search.
This can follow an initial triage, or serve as the starting point when you’re already confident in the asset but need rigorous diligence.
Our full patent invalidity search goes deep across patents, technical publications, product documentation, standards, and other non-patent sources that may be missed by automated tools. The objective is to thoroughly test claim strength, surface critical prior art, and expose vulnerabilities before they’re challenged in litigation.
What you get
- Customizable, structured report with the most relevant prior art references
- Detailed claims mapping charts
- Search led and reviewed by U.S. patent attorneys or patent agents
When you need it
High-value opportunities where the investment thesis hinges on patent strength.
RELATED SERVICE
Validate Infringement
Substantiate infringement with defensible evidence of use.
Proving patent validity alone isn’t enough, as favorable. results depend on proving real-world use. Our Evidence of Use (EoU) analysis maps asserted claims to products, systems, or industry standards, grounding infringement positions in concrete, verifiable evidence.
What you get
- Patent-to-product claims mapping to help IP counsel assess infringement position
- Comprehensive search across product documentation, datasheets, standards disclosures, marketing materials
Additional Capabilities
