Biotech FTO & prior-art searches, sized for small teams
We help small biotech teams and boutique patent law firms answer the questions investors and clients will ask about their IP—without big-firm overhead.
- Early-stage biotech focus – discovery through preclinical and early clinical programs, platform and single-asset companies.
- Right-sized projects – from fast red-flag screens to deep-dive FTOs that stand up in diligence.
- Bench-to-patent fluency – PhD-level understanding of the science plus experience with patentability, FTO and competitive landscapes.
Who we’re for
Venture-backed biotech startups, university spin-outs, and small patent law firms that need a specialist IP search partner.
Freedom-to-Operate (FTO)
Before you put serious money behind a program—or show it to investors—we map the patent landscape around your target, modality and delivery.
We highlight potentially blocking rights, white-space and areas where licenses or design-arounds may be needed.
Prior-art & patentability sweeps
We survey the prior art around a client’s invention so you can draft claims that are maximally defensible.
The goal: avoid spending limited cash on patents that won’t survive examination or investor diligence.
Competitive & IP landscapes
Concise, slide-ready views of who else is in your space, how they’re claiming it, and where your story fits.
Ideal for fundraising decks, BD discussions and internal portfolio decisions when you can’t afford a full consulting project.
Getting ready for a raise, term sheet, or license?
We help small biotech teams walk into investor meetings, BD calls and partner diligence with clear data about FTO and prior art.
