Utilization of NPE data in PatentPia

GoldenCompass analysis service

NPE right holders by specific field

PatentPia GoldenCompass treats NPEs as one of the types of right holders who have patents in possession related to field. Therefore, we include a service menu that analyzes the right holders of patents related to field by looking only at NPEs.

Analysis of NPE itself

PatentPia GoldenCompass provides a variety of multi-dimensional analysis services for individual NPEs, as well as for companies.

NPEs as Filters

PatentPia GoldenCompass provides an 'NPE filter' as an attribute of the entity (right holder, etc.).

Search service

PatentPia Search provides the ability to output different search results based on 'whether or not it is an NPE' as an attribute of the subject (right holder, etc.).
However, in order to use whether or not NPE as a search condition, the subject field must be expanded beforehand, via 'Open' next to 'Subject'.
(default)
(after selecting 'Open')
In order to add NPEs to the search criteria, we need to only check Y for whether or not they are NPEs (N is not checked).
