The value of intellectual property is best understood in context. With Decipher, you can cross-reference your intellectual property assets with associated products, licenses, royalties, expenses, agreements, business units and people. 

  • When it comes time to decide whether to renew a patent or family of patents, know when to hold 'em and when to fold 'em by understanding - in minutes instead of days or weeks! - how they're deployed and how they're performing.

  • Know which products use which IP so you can innovate ahead of the curve.

  • Drill down for details. Decipher won't just show you if a product is associated with a license agreement, it will let you drill down and see its terms. A patent is associated with a certain inventor? Decipher can show you that person's nondisclosure or invention assignment agreement.

Align IP with Business Strategy

The right hand should know what the left hand is doing. Is it among your company's goals to drive more innovation and create more IP? License and monetize some of the IP it already has? Either way, it takes lots of ideas to filter down to the best ones that create intellectual property. Decipher can help you track innovation activity and IP assets so you can know whether you're on track with business requirements. This saves a lot of time and expense, and helps to grow more value. 

  • Make informed decisions with powerful built-in analysis and reporting.

  • Set innovation targets and measure progress against them.

  • Get real-time insight into productivity and identify inhibiting factors.
