We Are Launching the IP5000Marketplace
We are democratizing IP using an IP-focused platform, utilizing our IPSCORE – a proven benchmark to quickly identify IP-rich companies, and our AI-driven platform delivering a recognized Standard Rating System for IP.
Over the last few months, we have built something exciting – an MVP for an IP-focused platform (like a CrunchBase for IP rich companies) for Lenders & Investors to ‘meet’, diligence and track pre-vetted high growth, IP-rich companies, before they need funding.
The IPSCORE is a strategic assessment that measures the strength, protection and exploitation of a company’s intellectual property (IP). The IPSCORE benchmark (the FICO score for IP) rates companies across 5 IP asset classes: Brand, Patents, Software, Critical Data, and Trade Secrets, identifying and separating high-growth and scalable IP-rich companies.


We would love your feedback to help us shape something transformative.

Why this matters:
- IP is a proven, leading indicator of high growth, scalable companies, yet many lenders and investors still struggle to identify such companies.
- Lenders & Investors are already using the IPSCORE to confirm the strength of a company’s competitive moat and as a critical input in “internal credit memo” assessment of a company’s ability to scale and achieve forecasts.
- Our IPSCORE, IP Insights and MVP Dashboard provide lenders & investors with unique insights into these companies and a lender-proven assessment of each company’s IP as collateral.
The IPSCORE acts as a trusted signal that cuts through the noise for Lenders & Investors.
The IPSCORE moves the conversation from assets to impact:
- What are the IP assets that actually underpin cash flows and drive business value?
- How defensible is the business model and what impact does IP have on the model?
- Where does IP offer real leverage for scale-up?
- Will the IP assets influence the exit valuation upside or recovery value downside?

“We are pleased to partner with Metis Partners as our preferred vendor for an IPSCORE assessment and valuing IP collateral as we expand our technology and ABL financing offerings for high-growth businesses”. – Daniel Godfrey, SVP Asset-Based & Tech Lending, Celtic Bank.
