Freedom to Operate (FTO) Search


Freedom to operate (FTO) searches, also known as Clearance Search or Right to Use Search
identifies potential patent barriers to the commercialization of products or technologies.
We identify published applications and unexpired patents (in a specific jurisdiction or
worldwide) containing claims that could possibly indicate a risk of infringement by an inventive
product or process of the client. The product/process features are mapped against the claim
features of relevant patent references that are in-force in order to determine the degree of
freedom to operate without infringing on existing patents.

State-of-art Search
Our State of the Art Search is designed to provide up-to-date information and
progress in a specific technical field. It is the broadest of all patent searches which
also provides an overall perspective of a particular technical field and is typically
conducted prior to making a patent application, or prior to amendment of an
existing patent application.

This search involves a comprehensive review of all patent and non-patent literature thereby
allowing client to update with the state of the art that exists already in a particular technology
and then to build on it. It will also allow a company to spot new competitors and to identify new
technological trends. Our State of the art search will help in making informed decisions in

determining the direction for steering the R&D and prior to making further investments, mergers
and acquisitions.
Our state of art searches will also help you to make informed decisions, before incurring
additional costs in relation to your patent strategies. This search includes all issued patent,
published patents and other publications.

Patentability Search
Our patentability search involves searching the prior art, which includes published patent
applications, issued patents, and any other published documents in light of your invention, with
the aim of determining whether your patent application is worth pursuing based on the
patentability aspects of the inventive concept. The basic purpose of a patentability search is to
better assess the likelihood of securing patent protection for an invention.

This search answers the questions like your idea is truly novel or not, has it already been
patented, has it been anticipated or rendered obvious. Since the cost of preparing, filing and
prosecuting or attempting to prosecute a patent application is substantial, the search suggests will
it be worth the cost to file a patent at all for the idea and will it be worth the effort and expense to
fully develop and market your concept.
This search not only makes the application process easier but also helps to strengthen the
invention against issues of validity. The search report includes relevant patent and non-patent
prior art references listed in a comprehensive manner. Patent search is conducted using public
and subscribed patent databases that cover patents from around the globe. Non-patent literature
search is conducted in the relevant technology domain using scientific databases.
