Acquiring on Friday?
Know their IP by Tuesday.

An accelerated technology and IP due diligence engine, for M&A, corporate venture, and deep-tech investment decisions.

Technology due diligence determines whether the target's IP position justifies the deal. Done well, it covers patent quality, freedom-to-operate exposure, competitive positioning, and whitespace defensibility. Done by a big firm, it costs €50–100K and takes 4–6 weeks. Kwintely produces a defensible first-pass DD report in hours, across 295M+ patents, papers, and clinical trials.

Picture this

Term sheet signed Friday. Closing in six weeks. Counsel quoted €60K and four weeks for technology DD. The board wants the recommendation by Tuesday. You have a thesis, you don't have the data, and the data is what the board will ask for.

What teams ask before they sign.

Does this replace counsel-led due diligence?

No, it accelerates it. Kwintely produces the structured search and analysis output that counsel would otherwise spend associate-time generating. Counsel keeps ownership of the legal opinion. The result: faster deal cycles, better-prepared counsel calls, fewer surprises at close.

Is the output ready for counsel review?

Every result includes the source document, publication date, similarity score, and the relevant passage quoted verbatim. The output is structured the way an associate-led search would be: ranked, cited, exportable. The AI is a mapping engine; the documents it surfaces are real. Counsel still makes the legal call; Kwintely does the search and citation prep.

How does this fit with my existing patent firm?

Most teams run Kwintely before engaging counsel, to scope the work and narrow the candidate set, then walk into the review with the search prep already done. Counsel spends their hours on judgement and the legal opinion, not on assembling the candidate list.

What about pricing and lock-in?

Three ways to work with Kwintely: the self-serve SaaS platform, scoped research-service projects where our team runs the analysis for you, or the API and MCP data layer for your own tools. Full output runs on a paid plan, the free tier is for trying basic searches, not complete deliverables. See the pricing page for current plans and terms.

Run the experiment, not the procurement.

Bring the next deal under LOI. We'll run the first-pass DD before counsel sees the term sheet.

Counsel still signs off

Kwintely produces the structured search; your firm keeps ownership of the legal opinion. Nothing about your existing relationship has to change.

Run it on a real case

Pick the technology you'd already pay counsel to clear. Compare what Kwintely returns against what your firm would charge for. Decide on the second case, not the first.

No lock-in

Free tier covers the first basic experiment. Full output on paid plans. Fixed monthly fee on the way up. The cost of the test is one search.
