Questions
mar:val links patent data, company financials and market data from established sources and makes the derivation transparent in the report.
Considerably faster than a classic appraisal. We'll name the concrete timeframe for your technology field in the demo.
Any field with patent activity, such as medical technology or mechanical engineering. In the demo we check your field specifically.
Both. An interactive dashboard for your own analysis and a branded PDF report for investors and buyers.
Your details stay with us. Analyses are based on public data; your project content is not shared.
