Hello and welcome to our little slice of the World, a place where passion and opinions run high in our niche area, which just so happens to be the world of patents, innovation, technology, business and other areas of intellectual property. Although Lewis Lee, our founder, is a patent attorney, and many of the contributors to our content are IP counselors, the content should NOT be considered to be legal advice, but rather are intended to be informational.

Performing patent-searches comprehensively with the ability to Search-Review-Refine-Iterate™ is a fundamental benefit of our IP Street tools for you, the IP counselors of the world. IP Street has developed a unified search that makes boolean search at the USPTO seem like a tool from the stone age.

With IP Street, you can do advanced boolean searches smarter and quicker. Additionally, based on our Discover paradigm of Search, Review, Refine, and Iterate we enable you to filter your results and search again.

Let IPstreet.com help you keep your patent portfolio organized. Organize your patents into groups, related to your product offerings. Identify each patent into a few tiers, where top-tiered patents are of higher commercial importance. This internal ranking can help identify which patents to maintain both domestically and internationally. Additionally, such a simple ranking will allow for establishing strategic enforcement guidelines. Resources are limited, so knowledge to identify which patents are most important can result in better utilization of resources. Using our patent search tools, you can better understand the value of a patent and analytics behind it.

We believe that intellectual assets, commonly taking the form of patented technology, are the least-understood and most-relevant resources to stimulate economic development through innovation. To make this happen, intellectual property (IP) needs to be more comprehensively understood so that better business decisions can be executed. This is why we are in business. An invention must have economic utility to benefit society. Some times, inventions are way before their time. However, most of the time, the business execution to commercialize the invention fails. In fact, those that conceptualize the invention rarely reap the rewards of the innovation's ultimate success. Using the search tools at IPStreet.com, you can better understand if your idea is patentable, patent duration, patent analytics, and the value of a patent business intelligence from intellectual property assets.
