What partners get

A partnership built
around your portfolio

01

Your portfolio gets preferred pricing

Companies in your portfolio get a partner discount on the Patentext platform. This means your startups can set aside less money for IP, or file on inventions they otherwise would have skipped coverage for.

02

Your companies exit at higher valuations

Patents are one of the clearest signals an acquirer or late-stage investor can price. Companies with filed patents raise at higher valuations at every stage and exit larger, which flows straight back to your returns.

03

We surface deal flow that fits your thesis

When our companies need funding, we match them with you. Companies can opt in to the matching program, and we surface only those that are a fit for your thesis.

04

You see IP trends before the market does

With hundreds of companies filing through our platform, we surface unique insights into patent filing trends across the spaces you invest in.

Let's build a partnership
that compounds.
