What commercial services do you offer?
Our ability to perform sophisticated manipulation of patent data allows us to create custom data sets in a variety of formats (Excel, MySQL, etc.), serve as a back-end data source for in-house patent-related software, and create computed fields to power state-of-the-art patent analytics.
Note that our ability to query patent data actually goes far beyond what you see on the web site. We have what is, as far as we know, the most sophisticated patent search engine available anywhere in the world. However, due to the extreme CPU requirements of some of the more sophisticated query types, we cannot make them available through our web site. Some of the additional searches that are available to us in-house are phonetic searches (make sure you don't miss anything due to common misspellings or British spellings), and query-by-example (a very sophisticated function which takes a subject document and finds the documents most similar to that subject document). We are also developing latent semantic indexing technology, which will enable a completely new, more accurate method of searching patents.
