Evalify Knowledge Base

Reference documentation for IP professionals using Evalify to run Freedom-to-Operate (FTO) analyses. This knowledge base explains Evalify's methodology, how to read the analytical work-product it generates, and how to get the most defensible results from the platform.

What Evalify is

Evalify is an FTO analysis platform that automates the labor-intensive components of a clearance analysis — invention decomposition, patent searching, limitation-by-limitation claim charting, legal-status assessment, and risk scoring — and returns a structured, reviewable work-product in minutes rather than the days or weeks a manual analysis typically requires.

It is built to support the way IP practitioners actually work: it produces an evidence-linked, claim-chart-based analysis you can interrogate, refine, and build your own conclusions on — not a black-box similarity score. The deepest tier, Counsel Grade, is designed for professional-depth analyses where the output needs to withstand scrutiny.

Where it fits in your practice

  • A rigorous first pass. Get a comprehensive clearance picture in minutes to scope a matter, triage risk, and focus your billable time on the claims that actually matter.
  • Breadth you'd rarely have time for. Every analysis layers in non-patent-literature prior art, legal-status-weighted risk, assignee/enforcement signals, and adjacent-market analysis as standard.
  • A structured work-product. Element-by-element claim charts, per-reference dossiers, and a documented basis for the assessment — the raw material for your own opinion.
On professional reliance

Evalify produces an automated FTO assessment, not an opinion of counsel. It is a research and analytical tool that augments your work and informs your judgment; the professional opinion — and the exercise of professional judgment — remains yours. See the FAQs.
