LandscapeiP
Making the right innovation decisions depends on having the right information. LandscapeiP combines advanced AI-enabled patent searching with expert attorney analysis to give you commercially focused patent intelligence in hours, not weeks.
Better Patent Intelligence for Better Innovation Decisions
Whether you're deciding if an invention is worth patenting, preparing for investment or ready to progress a new product, the quality of your next decision depends on the quality of your information.
LandscapeiP combines advanced AI-enabled patent searching with expert attorney analysis to deliver commercially focused insights in hours rather than weeks.
It is designed to answer the strategic questions innovators, founders and business leaders actually ask:
- Is this innovation worth patenting?
- What does the existing patent landscape look like?
- How crowded is the field?
- Where are the opportunities to differentiate?
- Are there third-party patents that could create risks?
- What should we do next?
The technology rapidly analyses large volumes of global patent data, relevant prior art, competitor filing activity and technology trends. This helps identify relevant patents, uncover emerging opportunities and highlight potential risks.
But technology is only part of the solution. Every LandscapeiP report is reviewed and interpreted by highly experienced patent strategists who understand the commercial, technical and competitive context in which the patents exist.
They turn the search results into clear, actionable recommendations that support innovation, investment and commercial decision-making.
The result is a concise, commercially focused report that gives you the information and practical next steps you need, without the length and complexity of a traditional search report.

Discover: Costs at a glance
Fixed cost: £1,500 (excluding VAT)
If you decide to proceed with a patent application, the cost of the Discover assessment will be reflected in a reduced drafting fee, recognising the analysis of your invention already carried out.
Navigate reviews the patent landscape to identify third-party patent rights that could be relevant to your product, together with a high-level assessment of how significant each is likely to be.
It isn't a formal freedom to operate (FTO) opinion. Instead, it gives you a clear view of where the risks lie and how seriously to take them.
Navigate is suited to later-stage innovations, products approaching commercialisation and businesses preparing for investment, market entry or product launch. It can also support businesses expanding into new territories, scale-ups raising growth capital and patent owners looking to understand competitive risks.
Navigate will analyse:
- Granted patents and published applications relevant to the technology
- The functional scope of the technology, searched across relevant patent classifications and keyword families
- Third-party rights across jurisdictions of commercial interest, typically with an emphasis on European (EP and GB) and US rights, and worldwide filings where relevant
- The apparent legal status, territorial coverage and significance of each relevant document
- Key patent owners and market participants
- The density of activity and notable trends within the field
- Jurisdictional coverage, including markets where activity appears comparatively low
Your Navigate report
The results are presented in a summary report containing:
- An executive summary
- Search details, including the feature under review, search scope, coverage and confidence of the results
- Relevant documents ranked by significance
