Market already known
You know who needs it. We get you in the room.
Mandate Review, by Patenture.
You already know who needs your patent. What you need is the package that earns a meeting, the relationships that get you into the room, and someone to run the process to a term sheet. The Mandate Review tests the thesis first, in about a week.
Built for security, identity, and trust technology: hardware security, cryptography, identity and access, payments and fraud, and regulated markets.
The review
Mandate Review
About one week, fixed fee
A plain answer on whether your market thesis holds against your claims and the people who would buy, and whether we would take the mandate.
Who it is for
A patent owner who already knows who needs the patent and wants it licensed or sold: a founder, an operating company divesting non-core patents, or an inventor whose patents fall below what a broker will take.
What follows
Where the thesis holds, the Licensing and Sale Mandate takes it to a term sheet.
What you receive, by name
Thesis Test
Your market thesis tested against the claims and against the categories of licensee and buyer who would pay, with what held and what did not. It answers whether you are right about who needs this. It is the basis for the yes or no.
Deal Shape
License, sale, or both, with the structure that fits and the reason. It answers what kind of deal this is. The mandate is scoped to it.
Diligence Gaps
The gaps a buyer's diligence would find first, ranked by how much each would cost you at the table. It answers what to fix before anyone looks. You close them before outreach starts.
Written Yes or No
A plain answer on whether the thesis holds and whether Patenture takes the mandate, with the reasons. It answers whether to proceed. A no is a finished deliverable.
The mandate
Licensing and Sale Mandate
Fixed setup fee, then monthly for a set term
Your patent packaged, pitched through the relationships that get it into the room, and run to a term sheet, with your counsel closing.
Who it is for
An owner whose thesis has passed the Mandate Review and who wants a license or a sale run by someone who has pitched patent portfolios to strategic acquirers and licensees before.
What the work is
A pitch package with a non-confidential summary, a one-page map of claims to products, and a data room; a validated list of licensees and buyers; outreach through global OEM, channel, and industry relationships; and deal management to a term sheet, with your patent counsel drafting and closing. Patent assets only: never the sale of a company, never a capital raise, never a finder's fee on a capital raise.
How it ends
The mandate ends at a signed term sheet or at the end of its term, with the package, the buyer list, and every conversation handed to you.
What the program produces
Non-Confidential Summary
A one-page summary of the technology and the opportunity that can be sent to anyone before an NDA. It answers what this is, safely. It is the first thing a licensee or buyer sees.
Claims-to-Products Map
One page mapping each claim to the products, yours or a licensee's, that would practice it. It answers who benefits, in commercial terms. It is the document that earns the meeting.
Data Room
The patent family, the summary, the map, and the supporting evidence organized for a counterparty's diligence, with access controlled. It answers what they will ask for. It is ready before the first call.
Validated Buyer and Licensee List
The companies that fit, validated with the people who would sign, and the relationship that reaches each one. It answers who we are going to call. Outreach runs against it.
Term Sheet Package for Counsel
The commercial terms of each deal in the shape your patent counsel needs to draft from. It answers what we agreed. Counsel drafts and closes from it.
Monthly Operating Review
Every conversation, its status, and the next action, reviewed with you each month with the plan for the next period. It answers where every deal stands. It is how you run the program without being in every call.
Every engagement starts with a mutual NDA and a written data-handling annex your counsel can review before intake. How confidentiality works.
Patenture is not a law firm. The claim explainer and the counsel question list are commercial analysis; claim construction, validity, and prosecution strategy stay with your patent counsel, whose access is a condition of the engagement.
