Richardson Oliver Insights FAQ

  1. What does Richardson Oliver Insights do?
    1. We gather information about all the patents and patent applications available for sale today on the open market. We clean the data, classify it, and obtain additional information about the deals such as price and evidence of use. We then supply that information to patent buyers. For those of our customers that want to sell patents or analyze the market, we aggregate the data and provide non-confidential information. 
  2. What products and services do we offer?
    1. We offer three types of reports and related analytics solutions:
      1. Active Deal Flow report - we provide up to date available market information. We work with the buyers to fully specify what kinds of patents will fit their needs. We then screen the hundreds of packages we receive for a fit to those needs. The reports include package summaries, pricing, seller information, and evidence of use. Typically reported on a monthly basis, active deal flow reports keeps buyers up to date on the purchase opportunities and the helps them focus on the deals that fit their business need.
      2. Deal Finder report - we provide a complete report of all deals in our database that fit the matching criteria. From these reports, buyers can identify deals still on the open market, evaluate what others have bought, and better define criteria for an Active Deal Flow report.
      3. Custom Market report - we provide aggregate information about the overall patent market. For example, we can include information like what are typical prices, who is buying, how long do deals remain on the market, and how many deals are available in a particular technology area.
