Filing Prioritization
Hundreds of incoming inventions with no scalable way to identify the highest-value filings quickly and consistently.
Elevating IP Strategy for a Global Software Provider
A global enterprise software provider used ArcPrime to accelerate invention-to-filing timelines, improve patent quality, and connect IP assets directly to business value.
The Challenge
A global enterprise with a high-volume R&D organization generating hundreds of invention disclosures annually faced increasing pressure on its IP team. Manual fact-gathering, inconsistent prior art searches, and time-intensive portfolio analysis made it difficult to keep pace with innovation.
Risk Assessment at Scale
Without automation, assessing patentability risk across a large portfolio was time-consuming, inconsistent, and prone to oversight.
Revenue Alignment
No clear way to connect patents with key business revenue streams, limiting the ability to focus investment on high-value assets.
Strategic Focus
Legal teams spent excessive time on routine, repetitive tasks instead of dedicating resources to high-value strategic work.
Automation & Insights
The team needed automated processes and deeper analytics to support smarter, data-driven decision-making.
The Solution
The company implemented ArcPrime across three core workflows.
Invention Disclosure Management
ArcPrime automates fact-gathering, structuring, and data entry — transforming raw disclosures into clean, outside-counsel-ready invention disclosure documents.
Result:
Faster turnaround, improved submission quality, and more time for strategic evaluation.
Automated Prior Art & Risk Assessment
For every new disclosure, ArcPrime performs automated prior art searches and assigns a High/Medium/Low risk score.
- Prioritize filings with stronger patentability.
- Avoid unnecessary spend on high-risk submissions.
- Allocate attorney time more effectively.
Result:
Smarter filing decisions and improved portfolio ROI.
Deep Research & Portfolio Intelligence
Using ArcPrime’s Deep Research capabilities, the company conducts large-scale patent analysis and gained visibility into how patents support revenue-generating product lines.
- Patent quality scoring
- Infringement risk scoring
- Mapping patent labels to revenue streams
Result:
Data-driven portfolio strategy and stronger alignment between IP, R&D, and business leadership.
