SUBJECT: Delphion News - New Analytical Tool Citation Link

There's patent data - and then there's patent information. With Delphion, you get both.

We provide you with not only complete worldwide patent data, but also the tools and services you need to gain insights from the data to make better business decisions.

With this in mind, we introduce to you Citation Link - our new analytical tool that enables you to quickly and easily discover the companies and technologies associated with a particular patent. Citation Link provides a powerful way to identify new licensing opportunities and gain competitive intelligence.

In this newsletter, we present Citation Link as well as our complete family of analytical tools that enable you to uncover insights from the millions of patents worldwide. It's one more way we show our dedication to providing you with the best patent research solution.

Introducing Citation Link: FREE Through May 30

Citation Link is Delphion's new analytical tool that graphically displays the relationships between patents. By seeing the companies and technologies related to an innovation, you can uncover licensing opportunities and collect significant intelligence about competitors. In addition, Citation Link can help you identify a patent's significance in the market by showing the number of times it is cited by other patents, a measure often used to indicate the asset's value.

With Citation Link, you have the flexibility to view patent citations in multiple ways. Using the tree format, you can see the patents that are cited by a selected patent, or the patents that cite the selected patent - or both at the same time. Using the timeline format, you can track trends in a particular field of innovation in one, five or 10-year increments.

Plus, Citation Link offers a host of features to help you quickly and easily gain an understanding of the data presented in the citation map. For example, you can plot patent relationships based on a variety of fields, such as title, inventor or classification code; color-code a specific patent or a group of patents to enhance analysis; zoom in or out on specific segments of the map; navigate large maps using a thumbnail overview; and much more.

Citation Link is available now and you can take advantage of it for FREE through May 30, 2002. Try it today!
