Before you begin the commercialization of your product/technology, it is quintessential to conduct a Freedom to Operate (FTO) search to ensure that the desired product can be safely launched in a specific market (countries or regions) without infringing or violating third party intellectual property rights within that particular jurisdiction. It can be conducted at any stage of product life cycle to determine the direction of product/technology development. A FTO also comes in handy if there are valid intellectual property rights of someone else that might be infringed by any actions you plan to take. You could possibly get a freedom to operate with respect to any one of those rights by reaching some sort of agreement for a license with the owner of those IP rights.

PatVerse has helped several clients in identifying any potential threats beforehand and our technology experts have helped them tackling these threats by suggesting certain design-around approaches based on the outcome of the analysis. We have worked on more than 2000 freedom to operate searches till now.
We work in close association with the clients to ensure high quality of the analysis. We have access to various patent databases such as Thomson Innovation, PatSeer, etc. apart from the free ones such as Google patents, Espacenet, and other national patent databases. We make sure that we are not missing on to any patent that exists out there through rigorous search on these patent databases.
Our freedom to operate search reports are self-explanatory and contain feature-to-claim mapping at a very granular level along with expert comments so that it is easy to understand for the client.
