Challenges in Patent Litigation for Defendants

IP Litigation is costly and time consuming; High stakes cases could cost upwards of $4 million

Litigation favors plaintiffs who can assert patent claims together to secure settlements or licenses

Prior art identification against multiple patents is tough, costly and takes many weeks/months

AI-Enhanced Defense Strategies

Advancements in AI tools like InvalidatorLLM empower defendants to

  • Aggressively challenge patent validity
  • Accelerate identification of critical prior art – patents, publications & disclosures
  • Mount effective invalidity strategies
  • Significantly alter settlement negotiations
  • Shift the litigation balance – favourable settlements or lawsuit withdrawal

Aggressive prior art search against plaintiff’s patents and disclosure of results could help secure a favourable settlement or compel the plaintiff to abandon the lawsuit.

Considerations & Conclusions

  • While powerful, AI-generated prior art must be validated by human experts
  • Xlscout identifies over 75% of manually selected and verified relevant prior art
  • Aggressive tactics may trigger counterclaims or reputational risks
