Intelligence
Map the landscape and watch it move.
Explore a vast library of non-patent literature, turn searches and portfolios into maps and charts, and monitor anything from a technology space to a group of patents — new filings and Office Actions, delivered to your inbox.
"A prior art landscape for the key assets of a portfolio, viewable in Clerq in minutes. Flexible dashboards built and analyzed in hours, not weeks."
why clerq intelligence
Effective IP strategy is played against a landscape that never sits still. If the picture gets assembled by hand, it goes stale the day it's finished, and usually stops at the edge of the patent corpus. Intelligence keeps it live — mapped, monitored, interactive, and more complete than patents alone.
AI-driven analytics
Turn thousands of unstructured records into visuals that communicate trends and insights.
The standing watch
Publications, issuances, and Office Actions flagged automatically, for as long as you watch the space.
Prior art beyond patents
Journals, papers, and technical disclosures — interrogated with Relevance Analysis and Ask Clerq.
How it Works
Every Intelligence capability starts the same way — define a universe, and put it to work. What happens next depends on what you need to know.
Define the universe
A portfolio, a technology area, or uploaded files. Any set you can identify becomes the scope.
Choose the lens
Cluster it into a map, put it under watch, or search the literature around it.
See what's there
Dashboards you shape yourself, alerts that explain why they fired, literature you can question.
visualize
Map the whole field from every angle.
Clusters show where the art concentrates and who owns it. From there, compare competitors, break out filing activity by year or jurisdiction, and walk into the meeting with a view anyone can follow.
See the white space
Open ground between the clusters, where R&D strategy has room to grow.
Drill down to the document
Every point on the map is a patent — click through to the full text and analysis.
Recluster on the fly
Highlight what interests you, and the map rebuilds around it.
dashboards
Chart what the landscape's doing.
Every dashboard starts with a question: how crowded is this space, who's gaining ground, what is this portfolio actually worth. Build the view that answers yours, from a ready-made template or a blank canvas.
Templates or custom views
State of the art, competitor comparisons, portfolio x-rays, all one click away.
Filter in real time
Narrow by jurisdiction, year, or assignee, and the whole dashboard updates.
Share a living view
Office Action and file wrapper alerts on the U.S. publications you select.
monitor
Watch the space, free from noise.
Keyword alerts flag everything and surface nothing. Clerq monitors by concept — it understands the space, so what reaches you is worth opening. Tune the sensitivity from directly on point to the whole technology area.
Narrow the watch
The key reference is often a paper, article, or standard — not a patent.
On your cadence
Alerts arrive on the schedule you set, shared with whomever you choose.
Follow prosecution events
Office Action and file wrapper alerts on the U.S. publications you select.
Beyond Patents
Where the other half of the prior art lives.
The patent record only holds what someone chose to file. The rest sits in the literature, old and new, scattered across sources that were not designed to be read together. Clerq's concept engine searches them as one.
Built for completeness
The key reference is often a paper, article, or standard — not a patent.
Analyzed, not just found
Relevance Analysis and Ask Clerq apply to the literature just as they do to patents.
One exportable list
Saved patents and NPL documents export to Word, Excel, or straight into an IDS.
“Clerq has gone from helping me search to doing the work under my direction. What comes back minutes later reads like an expert did it.”
