We found an art they will use in the trial, so it was good. The overall work feedback is good so far, the timeline is fantastic, and we are at present their go-to firm for all cases.Â
The client appreciated the work on the call. The call was attended by all team members. Based on previous work, the client approved an extended budget of 250 hours for all five patents.Â
Our client was pleased with the search report and stated that we provided appropriate references for the claim limitation glitch and other related claim limitation(s). Further, he had also given additional search with additional budget hours for other limitation(s).Â
Thank you very much for the updated interim summary of the invalidity search. The prior art provided in the summary is consistent with the type of art we want to see in the final report, and the format of the summary is good.

A client approached us with an invalidity search request for a set of patents. Out of this set, one patent was a real tough nut to crack. We had tried all the possible techniques and approaches but were unable to locate a promising prior art. The only art we could identify in this case was a Chinese patent, which was very similar to the claimed invention. The client appreciated how we went that extra mile to perform native searching and prepared a patent invalidity analysis report out of the budget. Â
A client approached us to analyze a competitor’s portfolio in the video encoding/decoding domain with the intention of portfolio acquisition. We fetched a bucket of the relevant patent set assigned to this competitor and performed a detailed portfolio valuation. We analyzed the dataset based on the length of the claim, number of backward and forward citations, number of total claims, number of independent claims, etc., and performed patent ranking for the bucketed patents with the help of the XLSCOUT patent ranking tool. The final deliverables helped the client in assessing the value of the competitor portfolio at large. Â

A freedom-to-operate search, often known as an
A patentability search, often referred to as
A patent validity search is performed to examine whether a subject patent is novel or non-obvious to a person skilled in the art.​
The invalidity search gives protection to an entity involved in a patent infringement lawsuit (defendant), by invalidating the claims of interest of the concerned patent of a party that filed a case or lawsuit (plaintiff)​.
When the search is performed to check the validity of the claims, it is called a validity or patent invalidation search.
The steps for performing a patent validity search and an invalidity search are similar. The only difference lies in the fact that which party is interested in getting the search done.  ​
Inalidator+ is a cutting-edge AI tool empowered by ParaBERT technology, specifically designed to streamline the process of accessing prior art for in-depth patent claim analysis. By integrating intelligent patent parameters like classification, citations, and assignees with advanced Natural Language Processing models, Inalidator+ enables users to conduct comprehensive invalidation searches effortlessly. The tool’s powerful capabilities facilitate quick identification of potentially relevant prior art, enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of the invalidation process for patents.Â
The prior art may be made on many elements including patents, published patent applications, and non-patent literature. Non-patent literature may include books, evidence of sale or usage, videos, technical standards, white papers, journals, physical forms, and online resources.​
It simply indicates that your invention is not unique and has already been filed.​
Various factors are taken into consideration to decide the cost of an patent validation analysis:​
A patent validity analysis can be conducted on an international level. Since patents are granted on a country-by-country basis, an international patent invalidity search would involve searching for prior art in multiple countries. However, it is important to note that the scope of the search may be limited by the language skills and resources of the searcher.Â
The impact of an patent invalidation search on the patent owner can be significant. If an patent invalidation search uncovers prior art that could invalidate the patent, it could lead to a challenge to the patent’s validity. This could result in the patent being invalidated or narrowed in scope, potentially limiting the patent owner’s ability to enforce their patent rights. Additionally, an invalidity search could be used by potential infringers as a defense in a patent infringement lawsuit, making it more difficult for the patent owner to enforce their rights.Â
An invalidation search report typically includes a list of prior art references that were uncovered during the search, along with an analysis of each reference and how it relates to the patent in question. The report may also include an opinion on the patent’s validity based on the prior art uncovered during the search. The search report may include various types of prior art, including patents, patent applications, journal articles, conference papers, and other publicly available information that could potentially invalidate the patent. The report may also include information on the search methodology used, the search terms employed, and any limitations or caveats associated with the search.Â
