Patents are sometimes valued by considering the Net Present Value of the products that are protected by these very patents, or by considering the market value of similar patents. NPA™ patent analysis can support the patent valuation process by indicating the relative strength of individual patents, or groups of patents, in comparison to other patents in the same technology area. Additionally, NPA™ patent analysis can value a patent based on it's relative importance in adjacent technology areas. For example, a nano-technology component, as part of the portfolio of an imaging and fotographic technology company, may be recognized by other industries as key component in fuel additives. As such, it may have been undervalued by more conventional valuation processes.

Ambercite and its products including Network Patent Analysis (NPA) and AmberScope analyse patent data using a statistical based approach that is based on available patent citation and ownership data. These outputs are purely mathematical in nature, and do not take into account the personal or professional opinions of any individuals or associates of Ambercite. These outputs are intended to be used as tool to help support further analysis, and should not be used by itself and without professional advice on the relevancy of this data to your unique circumstances. Data should not be relied upon to prove without any further analysis any opinion of the value, patentability, validity, freedom to operate or infringement of any patent, patents or inventions. Users should also be aware that available patent citation data is imperfect, and this will affect the results of this analysis. © Patent Analytics Holding Pty Ltd.
