Competitor Tracking – Identify which of your competitors are filing patents in similar tech domains. Identify which of your patents can be used in negotiations with that competitor. Identify which of your competitor’s patents can be a threat to you.

Example – One of our clients (a big multinational company) wanted to know which of their competitors are filing patents similar to theirs. We inputted their patents into BOS and identified companies whose patents were rejected by the examiner using the inputted patents. In this way, we were able to get a list of companies that were filing patents in tech domains where our client’s company had patented. Also, it indicated which of clients’ patents are IMP and can be used for negotiation discussion with those competitors, if required.
