Minesoft: Ensuring the Controlled Development and Deployment of Innovation
Ann Chapman - Daniel
Co-Founder And Managing Director
For high-tech innovations that involve long cycles of research and development, it is crucial to be protected via patents. Organizations from various industry verticals like chemical, pharmaceutical, engineering, and electronics that present inventions that indicate viable business opportunities need to file a massive amount of patents every year, which can prove to be a time-consuming process.
A prerequisite to filing a patent demands sifting through a mammoth of data that may be published in a foreign language, often includes supporting drawings and can be hundreds of pages long. There are a plethora of caveats which concern the validity of the patented innovation as well. In a niche market with limited solution providers globally, Minesoft, founded in 1996, is perfectly poised as one of the leaders in this domain with its novel offering PatBase combined with their industry-rich expertise for searching and analyzing patent data globally. “We work with the patent specialists in large companies across the world, helping their Legal Departments cope with the ever-increasing flood of information about innovation,” adds Ann Chapman-Daniel, Co-founder and Managing Director at Minesoft.
The primary search tool has been built on a robust platform to assist clients in performing intuitive searches of the amalgamated data and review, comment, share and analyze business-critical patent information that can propel business units to make better informed strategic decisions. The proprietary database has a user-friendly interface and breaks down any information silos and transfers the
acquired knowledge company-wide in a secure manner. The solution is easily deployable with the provision of free training and a highly adept support team in parallel with the client's in-house team throughout the transition process.

Catering to the broad spectrum of patent intelligence, Minesoft proffers a gamut of cutting-edge products and services. Another innovative product extended by the company is Pat-KM which caters to all knowledge management requirements. Companies can be subject to patent lawsuits or may simply want to maintain a watch on key technologies and competitors. In conjunction with conducting a continual surveillance of a technological field, the product facilitates the client with the ability for data to be tagged and annotated by the experts within the company. This enables companies to allocate a field that may be of importance to their organization and develop their own powerful resource of in-house expertise. “I am personally attached to Minesoft Pat-KM as I think it offers a brilliant opportunity for the Patent and Legal Departments to showcase their talents to the corporation,” reveals Ann.
With over two decades of experience in this sector, the company prides itself on achieving the most distinguished Queen’s Award for Enterprise in 2009 and 2015. Having closely worked with corporate clients and attorneys, Minesoft offers a comprehensive suite of products apart from the aforementioned solutions, such as, PatentOrder, PatentTracker, CiteTracker, Inspec, Legal StatusTracker and so on. Staying ahead of the technological growth curve, the company recently developed a data-mining solution, Chemical Explorer, for searching chemicals in the full text of patent documents. Additionally, a new module has been incorporated into PatBase, TextMne, enabling users to view not only chemical related information but also to locate physical properties in patent documents.
