Case Study: Puraffinity accelerates in-house patent analysis with PatSnap

Puraffinity - Customer Case Study

Puraffinity, a London-based green technology startup focused on designing advanced materials for environmental benefit, needed a faster, more cost-effective way to handle patent and competitive analysis. Before working with PatSnap, the team relied on free tools and outside counsel, which made freedom-to-operate searches and innovation research time-consuming and expensive. They used the PatSnap suite, including PatSnap Analytics, PatSnap Discovery, and PatSnap Insights, to bring this work in-house.

With PatSnap, Puraffinity was able to do about 85% of its preliminary FTO and patent analysis internally, saving time and money while improving early-stage decision-making. PatSnap’s visual analytics and discovery tools gave the team a clearer view of competitors, emerging startups, and patent landscapes, helping them track new entrants and better carve out their niche. According to Puraffinity, PatSnap also provided a deeper understanding of patent data without requiring specialist expertise.
