Why New Services Create Enthusiastic Clients
How can valid search results be achieved at a reasonable budget in a very short time? This was the question noventive asked itself in its search for a powerful patent search tool. As an innovative company, they also want to offer innovative solutions to their clients, thus rounding out their top-notch legal services. The efficiency of predori convinced them immediately.
Read here which problems were the basis and which successes could be celebrated.
Challenge
The noventive group consists of a technology company and an innovative IP law firm. Their vision is to protect tomorrow’s most innovative ideas with the latest technologies. “Before using predori, we faced some issues that we wanted to solve promptly. For one, the consultation between client and researcher to create a basic consensus without losing much information was often quite time-consuming. Depending on the complexity of the search topic, several iterations were necessary in order to define the subject of the search in a targeted manner,” says Jens Reinhard, a patent attorney & the co-founder of noventive. On the other hand, it was often difficult for noventive to calculate the offer in advance, as searches are dependent on various factors.
The wish of noventive was to be able to offer valid and fast search results at a reasonable budget and if possible as a fixed price. For example, to quickly assess the patentability of a client’s idea. The innovative firm strives to provide better services to its clients by giving them an information advantage and by increasing the quality of patent applications and advice through knowledge of the state of the art.
noventive had set itself 4 specific goals:
- Obtain valid results in a short time
- Make processes more efficient
- To present price and performance transparently
- Offer clients innovative solutions for optimal IP consulting
Solution
When noventive started working with predori, they were skeptical at first and wondered if the tool could really be helpful. But soon after the launch, they celebrated their first successes and were able to appreciate the importance of predori for their work and their clients.
“Integrating predori into our processes was easy and fast. We were fascinated by how efficiently and accurately predori works. The tool’s smart features allow us to focus on the facts, so we have more time for our clients. It’s a great feeling to work with the tool, which saves us so much time and makes our work more productive!” describes Alexander Füg, CEO & Co-Founder of noventive. He adds that the software simply helps to get to the information we are looking for through the step-by-step support of artificial intelligence. This way, goals can be achieved faster, innovations accelerated and products enhanced.
These were the 3 decisive factors for integrating predori as a research tool into the noventive group:
- Cost transparency (calculability of a search)
- Time factor for conducting and evaluating a search (results are available within a very short time
- Possibility to use predori “together” with the client
Find what you need to find - not just what you are looking for!
noventive uses predori specifically to search together with clients in the initial consultation or the early stages of invention disclosures. In this way, it is possible to quickly determine whether it makes sense to pursue an idea from a patent law perspective. In addition, the prospects of success of different embodiments of an invention can be examined quickly and efficiently. predori thus provides noventive with a solid basis for developing high-quality and price-efficient filing strategies and recommendations on how to proceed to ensure the commercial success of clients.
“predori is a revolutionary tool that works expediently. It is a great relief for us as the software quickly captures the patent relevant information and visualizes it in a matrix. This allows us to advise our clients quickly and efficiently. We thus offer them added value, which inevitably has a positive impact on their technological development. With predori, we can analyze invention disclosures in different fields and, together with the clients, check the chances of success of different embodiments of their ideas and jointly develop IP strategies,” says Dr. Stefan Schinkinger.
