AV2 is moving from draft to deployment faster than any AOMedia codec before it, opening new licensing conversations across streaming, mobile, consumer electronics, and connected devices. But many patent owners may already hold AV2 value inside their existing HEVC, VVC, and AV1 portfolios without realizing it.

A patent declared for HEVC or VVC does not lose relevance just because the market moves to AV2. If the claimed technology is carried forward, evolved, or implemented under a different name in the AV2 specification, that patent may support a genuine AV2 essentiality position.

In this webinar, GreyB explains how existing video codec portfolios can be checked against the newly released AV2 specification to uncover essential patents before licensing pools and bilateral disputes take shape.

You’ll get answers to

• Why AV2 monetization should not be limited to patents declared specifically for AV2
• Which HEVC, VVC, and AV1 patents may already read on AV2 features
• Why AV2 adoption is expected to move faster than AV1’s did
• Why VVC portfolios show the strongest overlap with AV2, and what that means for cross-licensing
• How prediction, high-level syntax, and partitioning claims map to AV2 without new filings
• Why keyword-only searches miss a significant share of relevant patents
• How GreyB combines AI-based essentiality screening with manual claim-by-claim mapping
• How patent owners can build a defensible, claim-chart-backed position before entering a pool or bilateral talks

Join the webinar to see how existing video codec portfolios can be reviewed for AV2 relevance.

We’ll show how patent claims can be mapped against the AV2 specification, how cross-standard overlap between AV1, HEVC, VVC, and AV2 can be identified, and how licensing teams can prioritize the SEP candidates most likely to hold value in upcoming AV2 disputes.
