About Us

ONE OF THE FIRST FEW FIRMS IN INDIA TO OFFER SPECIALIZED PATENT RESEARCH SERVICES

SciTech Patent Art is a global leader in patent search, technology landscaping and in building big data engineering / machine learning tools for the global IP and R&D communities. Established in 2002 with one US-based Fortune 50 client as our founding client, we now serve over 300 clients based in US, Japan, Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland and Southeast Asia. We still serve our first Fortune 50 client, which speaks to our ability to retain clients with industry-leading services. The majority of our clients come to us through references from existing clients. Our difference lies in our technical expertise, proprietary tools that we use, and the exceptional service levels that we offer.

Our Philosophy

Many of our clients have conveyed to us that we are their preferred partner because we provide ‘value’ – high quality actionable insights within a short time at a reasonable cost. We have been able to provide client value consistently over the last decade by empowering our employees and building scalable business processes.

How well we understand the client’s need is the single most important determinant of the quality and cost of our work. Our client-querying and calibration approach uncovers client needs in a systematic manner- a process that has evolved by means of constant refinement over a decade.
