The Best Clarivate Alternative for Patent Lifecycle Management
Clarivate offers a fragmented suite of IP products. ArcPrime delivers a unified AI platform that manages the entire patent lifecycle — from invention through portfolio optimization.
Why Teams Switch from Clarivate
Fragmented product suite
Derwent for search, CPA Global for renewals, IPfolio for management — Clarivate's portfolio is a collection of acquisitions, not an integrated platform. Your team juggles multiple tools and logins.
Search and data without lifecycle intelligence
Clarivate is strong on patent data and search, but it doesn't help you process inventions, proofread drafts, generate OA responses, or make data-driven pruning decisions.
High total cost of ownership
Multiple subscriptions, per-module pricing, and add-on fees make Clarivate one of the most expensive options — without the AI-powered lifecycle management that drives ROI.
Slow innovation cycle
Large enterprise acquisitions are slow to integrate and innovate. AI features are bolted on to legacy products rather than built into the foundation.

Why Choose ArcPrime
One Unified Platform
Replace Clarivate's patchwork of Derwent, IPfolio, and CPA Global with a single AI-powered platform that covers the entire patent lifecycle.
AI at Every Stage
From AI invention intake through renewal pruning, ArcPrime adds intelligence to every step — not just search and data retrieval.
Patent Detectability Scoring
Know if a patent will be enforceable before investing in it. Predict art unit, detectability, and expected office actions.
AI Draft Proofreading
AI reviews outside counsel drafts and flags missing claim elements — improving patent quality without adding headcount.
Renewal Pruning Intelligence
AI analyzes patent families and recommends pruning non-detectable, narrow, or redundant cases — reducing renewal fees substantially.
Built by Patent Counsel
ArcPrime was built by patent counsel who understand each step of the lifecycle — not assembled from acquired enterprise products.
