GLOBAL PATENTS & PRODUCT PROTECTION
Combine IPD's powerful loss-of-exclusivity analysis with our GPS platform to comprehensively search, track, and analyze patents, extensions, exclusivities, and litigation on a global basis.
GPS serves as a comprehensive platform for understanding product protection, offering 4 unique information sets:
Global Patent Search
Offensive Patent Tracker
Global Brand Approvals Tracker
Global Regulatory Exclusivity Tracker
Global Patent Extension Tracker
Global Brand Approvals Tracker
GLOBAL PATENT & PROTECTION SEARCH
Together with IPD’s loss-of-exclusivity analysis and litigation insights, GPS can bolster intellectual property and competitive intelligence efforts, providing a comprehensive way to search, track, and analyze patents across 65 countries with coverage of over 500K patents. In addition, use our global regulatory exclusivity tracker, global patent extension tracker, and offensive patent tracker to analyze product protection further.
​
Our GPS analysts use a proprietary, bottom-up approach to link patents to drugs, construct families, determine expirations, and verify patent types, providing accurate, up-to-date, country-specific information, including:
-
Patent family, loss-of-exclusivity, key patent, and extended family views
-
Verified, accurate point-of-novelty and formal patent typing
-
Statuses, expirations, and patent term and pediatric extensions
-
Patent applications, expired patents, and other relevant patents
-
Patent register indicators (United States, Canada, Mexico, China,
Korea, Taiwan, etc.)
