Compare Clarivate and PatentRenewal.com across workflows, tools, costs, reliability and transparency to find the renewal solution that best fits your IP needs.

A closer look at how IP renewals are set up, executed, and controlled behind the scenes.
Uses local agents in most markets to execute renewals (even if they’re not legally required). Extra intermediaries mean higher fees.

User-friendly software with auto-renewal options, personalized reporting, live IP portfolio tracking with custom updates, and smart filtering options.
Reporting is primarily based on predefined templates, with limited flexibility for tailored portfolio views or custom filtering.
