Patent number: 11514529Abstract: Systems and methods for intellectual property (IP) asset protection are disclosed. For example, by analyzing characteristic information associated with a user, along with feedback from one or more potential insurers, the system may determine various terms of an insurance policy for protecting the user against claims of IP infringement. The policy may provide for financial reimbursement for costs incurred while taking active measures to mitigate losses and/or defend against such claims. In addition, the system may analyze the characteristic information to identify various users having a low exposure of an infringement claim being asserted. The identified users may be actively targeted to acquire an IP protection policy.Type: GrantFiled: August 16, 2019Date of Patent: November 29, 2022Assignee: AON RISK SERVICES, INC. OF MARYLANDInventors: Nicholas Joseph Chmielewski, Derek Charles Lietz, Lewis C. Lee, Daniel Crouse

Publication number: 20220180059Abstract: Systems may perform analyses of claims included in a patent document. The systems may generate one or more search strings from the patent document and provide the one or more search strings to a third-party searching authority. The third-party searching authority may return a collection of documents responsive to the one or more search strings. In particular situations, the systems may re-rank the documents of the collection to provide a patent centric ranking. The systems may also analyze the documents of the collection with respect to the elements of the claims to generate various types of patent infringement and/or invalidity reports.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 8, 2020Publication date: June 9, 2022Inventor: Lewis C.
