Corporates & Consultants
We help corporates to track and beat their competition
Our Clients are using the Quantum Terminal to track competition on a knowledge level. They stay informed about every publication, which is referring to them, and can easily identify potential acquisition opportunities to strengthen their own profile.
GET STARTEDFact SheetCorporate Features & Modules
The Quantum Terminal has been developed together with leading international corporations to provide companies with valuable insights.
Competitive Intelligence
Wouldn’t it be great to know your competitor’s next moves before they made them? The Quantum Terminal helps you plan and react early to threats from competitors. Analyzing patent activity can help you discover your competitors’ latest and most valuable technologies, new entrants to the market and hidden R&D opportunities with low competition.
Mergers & Acquisitions
With the Quantum Terminal, you can put monetary value on individual patents and portfolios held by target companies, giving you an upper hand in negotiations. You can also identify potentially high-risk areas and competitors or partners from seemingly unrelated sectors that otherwise wouldn’t show-up. Using the Quantum Terminal, you can assess the strength of a target vs the competition; portfolio value, innovation rate, geo presence and technology areas.
Business Risk Assessment
Quickly and easily access company data across combined datasets from both listed and privately held businesses to assess risk and potential opportunities. Set-up alerts triggered by the events that matter most—new competitor filings, new licensing deals, and litigation activity. Immediately investigate the extent and potential impact of an event—and determine how this changes patent value, competitor strength or market conditions.
Knowledge Universe
Our research driven Big-Data analytics approach allows us to build comprehensive knowledge graphs for companies of any size. From startup to large enterprises. These knowledge graphs represent detailed knowledge profiles and can be used to identify hidden players in the ecosystem, but also strength/weaknesses of potential buy- or sell-side targets.
The Quantum Terminal brings together corporate data of more than 180M+ companies worldwide, Intellectual Property & patent data, powerful analytics and communication tools – in one integrated solution.
Companies use our terminal to mine global patent and innovation data for strategic business intelligence. These analytics can be used for competitor tracking, strategic planning and decision making. The Quantum Terminal gives business leaders and consultants – without prior IP experience – immediate access to untapped insights from patent & IP data so they can make better and faster decisions. An integrated collaboration functionality allows teams to seamlessly integrate the Quantum Terminal research process into the existing M&A advisory workflow.
IP Indicators and Company-Specific Data
At the heart of the Terminal is the assimilation of both proprietary and external research to create real-time indicators pertaining to IP and intangible assets. These indicators provide a critical framework for our smart beta and trade analyzer applications, in addition to the real-time alerts flagging stock price discrepancies vs. the IPI.

USE CASE EXAMPLE
Identify Buy and Sell Side M&A Targets Based on IP Data and Artificial Intelligence
Traditionally, when Company X wants to expand in a particular technology area and wants to prepare a list of potential acquisition candidates, questions around how to identify targets or how to rank them arise. With our machine learning based approach, an M&A target list is created by analyzing the buyers’ technological scope by generating a competence cluster based on its intellectual property. Support vector machines are analyzing all patent filings and understand what areas the acquirer owns technologies in. For each area, the machine maps every patent of the acquirer with every patent of the potential targets and provides an overview of its relatedness and closeness.

Potential Acquisition Targets, Based on the Technological Closeness and Relatedness.
USE CASE EXAMPLE
Uncover Competitor, Tech- & Market Trends
The Quantum Terminal helps track markets, competitors and technologies by identifying where IP sits within an overall landscape. The platform shows who the actors are in a new, adjacent and emerging space. And it helps to map hotspots and whitespace so you can source inspiration from the closest solutions to the idea you wish to pursue. This is the level of intelligence needed to stay one step ahead.
