Integrated patent functions
Search, monitoring, analysis and collaboration in one platform. AI-supported for more precise results and more efficient patent work.
free of charge and without obligation
Five functional pillars of the platform
IP7 is divided into five fully integrated areas that were developed on a common platform, access a common database and are intelligently enhanced by AI-supported functions.
Research
Combination of classic search and modern AI patent search with advanced filter and evaluation functions - for more precise, complete and well-founded results.
Monitoring
AI-supported monitoring of patent activities with intelligent relevance assessment and automatic notifications of important changes.
Analysis and Insights
Strategic evaluation of patent data to identify technology trends, competitive dynamics and strategic potential.
Cooperation and Governance
Individual, role-based workflow templates can be created flexibly and adapted at any time. In combination with complete traceability, they enable structured and traceable mapping of company-specific processes - a decisive added value compared to standard solutions.
Family and legal status monitoring
Changes within patent families and legal statuses are continuously monitored. Events can be filtered, prioritized and systematically tracked.
Structured patent search and evaluation
IP7 supports professional searches from the initial orientation to the well-founded evaluation of relevant IP rights.
Project-based Searches
FTO, overview or state of the art? Structuring searches according to topics and questions. With search history and highlighting.
Combined search logics
Combination of classic search criteria and AI queries within a search.
Relevance decides
AI ranking, full-text ranking or citation ranking - IP7 automatically brings the most relevant patents to the top and thus increases the efficiency of your search.
Similar Patents - intelligently found
Whether AI-based or via citations, directly or indirectly, ad hoc or in the search profile - IP7 quickly and reliably identifies similar patents for each relevant patent specification.
Relevance assessment and documentation
AI-supported evaluation and commenting as well as complete traceability of searches and hits in the project context.
Results management and export
Structured Management of Hits and Export in various Formats for further Evaluations and Reports.
Continuous monitoring of relevant property rights
IP7 enables the automated monitoring of patents, technologies and competitors. Relevant events are recognized and forwarded to the responsible persons in a targeted manner.
Automated search profiles with complete Tracking
IP7 executes search queries regularly and logs the results. This means that new hits and changes can be tracked at any time.
Technology and competition monitoring
IP7 continuously monitors technological developments and competitive activities with the help of AI in order to identify potential patent risks at an early stage.
Legal status monitoring critical Patents
Targeted monitoring of critical patents with automatic notification of responsible persons when patents are granted - for early risk assessment and reliable decisions.
Event-based Notifications for the right Recipients
Automatic notification of the responsible persons for new publications and important changes - targeted, role-based and without loss of information.
Automatic relevance detection and classification
AI automatically identifies relevant patents, classifies them in a targeted manner and consistently filters out irrelevant hits - for significantly more efficient and focused results.
AI-supported patent monitoring with understandable Insights
AI supports monitoring through automatic summaries and comprehensible claim presentations. This allows patents to be recorded, evaluated and classified more quickly.
Strategic evaluation of patent data
Analysis functions support the structured evaluation of patent data in order to strategically classify technologies, competitors and portfolios.
Patent and technology landscapes at a glance
Visualization of technology fields and their development over time - for a clear understanding of trends, dynamics and innovation priorities.
Knowing what competitors are doing - and why
Recognize strategies, focal points and dynamics of your competitors at a glance.
AI-generated technical folder structures
With the help of AI, technical folder structures are automatically created based on descriptions or competitors - for quick orientation in complex patent landscapes.
Automatic filling of AI-generated folder structures
Relevant patents are automatically assigned to the AI-generated structures. Optionally, these can be operated as monitored profiles so that new hits are regularly integrated.
Instantly analyze and flexibly filter patent portfolios
Ad-hoc analysis of large patent portfolios with flexible filter options - e.g. by status (granted/living), competitors or technical classifications - for fast and well-founded evaluations.
Dynamic visualization of patent lists
Visualizations are based directly on the selected patent list and are updated in real time when search criteria or filters are changed - for immediately visible correlations and developments.
Structured Collaboration and transparent Decisions
IP7 Compass supports collaboration between IP, development and other stakeholders through clear roles, defined workflows and documented decisions.
Efficient Collaboration without Duplication
Team members can see in real time which patents have already been analyzed, evaluated or commented on - and thus avoid redundant work and unnecessary coordination.
Clear Structures for safe and easy Use
Roles, Tasks and Responsibilities are clearly defined - for high Acceptance within The team, Secure processes and intuitive Use.
Central information base for maximum overview
All important Information on Projects, Patents and Evaluations is bundled in one Place - without scattered Data in different Systems or Documents.
Record project status at a glance
Ratings, prioritizations and comments make it immediately clear how relevant or critical patents are considered to be for a project or technology field.
Transparent and comprehensible Decisions
All assessments, discussions and decision bases are documented and remain traceable at all times - even in the long term.
Scalable Processes for growing Requirements
Even with an Increasing number Of Patents, projects And users, collaboration Remains structured, clear and efficiently manageable.
Continuous family and legal status monitoring
IP7 monitors changes within patent families and legal statuses in a structured and continuous manner. Relevant events are recorded and the responsible persons are informed.
Event filter
Targeted filtering of relevant changes such as grants, objections, changes of applicant and much more.
Family overview
Transparent representation of all members of an extended patent family.
Direct access to official legal status data
For detailed information on patent families and legal statuses, there are direct links to the relevant patent offices - for transparent, reliable and traceable data at all times.
Clear presentation of legal status data
Legal status data is presented in a clearly structured manner and can be filtered flexibly according to freely definable time periods or events.
Workflow integration
Automatic forwarding of relevant events to responsible persons in the company.
History and Audit
Documentation of all changes for traceable decision-making processes.
