Semantic Essentiality Score

Your first step to determining patent essentiality

The IPlytics Semantic Essentiality Score guides you on how likely essential a patent is to the standard it is declared for. Using a semantic mapping of independent patent claims to standard sections, an essentiality score is calculated ranging from 1-100 with 100 being the most likely essential.
