Alerts

Thomson Innovation Alerts allow you to create highly customized alert profiles, enabling you to receive the information you need - when and how you want it. Select your preferred frequency and format for notifications, as well as share your Alerts with any number of individuals in your organization. Thomson Innovation Alerts can be set to search across all content sets, including patent records, scientific literature and business and news data.

Watched Records

Select one or more patents that you want to watch for changes - and we will watch them for you and notify you whenever they are updated. A change in legal status could mean that the patent has expired or that the patent owner has neglected to pay the fees. A change in the assignee could mean that the patent has been sold, which could indicate a change in business focus for both the seller and buyer. Setting key records up to be watched lets you see all of this, without searching and without lengthy comparisons of records.

Staying informed on patent data is easier than ever with watched record tracking. Receive notification about:

• Family Changes
• Legal Status Changes
• New publication stage
• Citation changes
