The rising number of patent filings is expected to drive the growth of the patent valuation service market in the coming years. Patent filings involve the formal submission of an application to protect an invention by granting exclusive rights to the inventor, thereby securing legal ownership and preventing unauthorized use. The growth in patent filings is attributed to increased investment in research and development, as organizations concentrate on developing unique solutions and safeguarding their intellectual property rights. Patent valuation services support patent filings by offering insights into the commercial value of an invention, allowing inventors and organizations to justify filing costs and prioritize high-value innovations. For example, in June 2024, according to The Intellectual Property Office, a UK-based government agency, the number of patent applications rose by 2.4% between 2022 and 2023 to 19,943. Therefore, the increasing volume of intellectual property filings is contributing to the growth of the patent valuation service market.

Companies in the patent valuation service market are increasingly developing advanced solutions, such as AI-powered patent search tools, to improve the accuracy and efficiency of patent analysis. These solutions use artificial intelligence to quickly locate, analyze, and categorize relevant patent information, enabling better valuation and decision-making. For instance, in December 2024, Clarivate Plc, a US-based analytics company, launched AI Search in Derwent, an AI-powered patent search tool. This tool integrates AI with the Derwent World Patents Index (DWPI), which includes over 160 million patent records, to help intellectual property professionals identify the most relevant patents more efficiently. Using a language transformer model, the AI interprets the context of user queries to deliver highly accurate results, assisting patent researchers and attorneys in conducting effective patentability searches while minimizing the risk of overlooking critical patents. This advancement significantly speeds up the patent search process by reducing the number of documents to review, supporting quicker and more reliable innovation decisions.
