PATselect® 4.0
Patent searches redefined!
Search – Find
Patent searches usually have to be many things at the same time:
- fast and accurate,
- complete and easy to comprehend,
- „best practice“ search approaches and flexible search queries
PATselect 4.0 offers with its two search modes
- Comfort Search and
- Expert Search
the optimal tool for every need.
The Comfort Search enables, by its integrated Help function, fast and uncomplicated results, which can be filtered, highlighted, commented on or enriched with additional information at will. The documents run automatically along with the search queries. Daily tasks are completed in less time!
The Expert Search gives the researcher the freedom to efficiently design the search queries with the fields, the syntax and the capabilities of the system of the respective Office. Absolute transparency, repeatability and official data – plus the whole comfort of the PATselect 4.0 System.
This eliminates time-consuming compilation of search queries within a field-driven or fixed search setting.
Highlight – Rate – Comment
Benefit from individual colour markers (advanced highlighting) for your important keywords. Find the right places in documents efficiently and quickly when viewing results.
Quickly rate documents by relevance and retrieve rated documents again. Customize records with comments, ratings and categories / tags (matter id) and view and share with all users / user groups within a company.
Save your comments.
Add to existing comments.
Search the full text of comments.
Document display – Export – Evaluation – Statistics

Data records can be individualized by comments, ratings and categories / tags. This information is then made available to all users of a company / group of companies.

Monitoring – Competitor and Technology Monitoring
The regular monitoring of certain classes and/or competitors, often in selected countries, is necessary, to ensure that property rights are not infringed by other competitors or that a particular company does not infringe on the property rights of other companies.
In addition, patent monitoring provides information about the latest publications in a given product environment, thus supporting research and development activities.
The supplementary monitoring module in PATselect 4.0 allows the creation of monitoring profiles in self-selected countries. A corresponding search run is automatically started weekly (date can be individually selected) and new publications are displayed within the database. Here, they can be provided with content comments, tags (labels) and relevance information.
In addition, the overview with result summaries is optionally sent as an e-mail.
The monitoring module can be activated within PATselect 4.0 for a fee.
All platforms – Available everywhere – Secure
PATselect 4.0 is web-based and encrypted bespoke servers hosted in Germany.
We have the option of storing your information (comments, ratings) in your company or law firm infrastructure – because it’s your data!
