The need for a technology-centric database for technology scouting teams –

SciTech Patent Art, specializing in technology research and analytics has over 17 years of experience in working with R&D, technology scouting and commercialization teams. Over the years, our research for these teams has led to the identification of new and exciting early-stage developers in various technical disciplines. We also noticed that current solutions available in the market do not meet the needs of our client teams. Available solutions are tailored to meet the needs of the financial community, e.g., venture capitalists, private equity firms.

SciTech Patent Art’s EDD is custom-developed with the following key features:

  • Extensive data collection across private and government sources using proprietary deep web search techniques
  • Manual curation with a detailed technology taxonomy
  • Information on contact, funding details, stage of development, etc.
  • Key patents, scientific literature, news releases
  • News updates for selected entities
  • Ability for user to add user-defined fields or entities
  • Two-layer security design to allow users to add information/edit inside the firewall
  • …and many more features to enable internal team collaboration
