It is important to highlight that we also provide detailed statistical reports on technological monitoring and strategic data to support the client in decision-making. In this way, we are able to minimize risks and optimize their investments in innovation.
And all of this is done in a personalized manner. In other words, our technological monitoring is a service that is completely focused on your specific needs and areas of interest.

Private technology monitoring platforms are accessed through subscriptions and allow us to carry out slightly more detailed and in-depth patent searches, according to the interests of each client.
They integrate data from multiple jurisdictions with real-time updates, and feature advanced features such as trend analysis, citation mapping, graphical data visualization, and innovation assessments.
