Know which patents matter.
And what to do with each one.
IP8 ranks the entire portfolio and shows you the assets worth more investment, the ones worth licensing or asserting, and the ones that stopped earning their renewal fees; with the reasoning behind every position.
Every patent in the portfolio
has a different job.
Most portfolio reviews are renewal exercises. Which do we keep, which do we drop, decided annually under time pressure. They are often settled by whoever argues hardest for their own technology area.
But a patent worth keeping can be worth keeping for entirely different reasons
Stop asking what to prune. Start asking what each patent is for.
Evaluate everything, not just the assets
already getting attention.
IP8 applies one consistent framework across the whole portfolio so assets are measured against each other, not only when a renewal notice or a dispute forces the question.
One Portfolio.
Three Strategic Zones.
Turn a ranking into an action list.
The ranking is only useful
if you can defend it.
Portfolio decisions get challenged. Teams need to understand why one asset ranks above another, why some deserve more investment, and why others may not.
A black-box score makes those decisions harder to defend.
Bring the next patent decision to IP8.
Find the crown jewels. Protect the strategic assets. Surface the licensing and enforcement candidates. Identify where spend deserves reconsideration.
