Our industry classification stands out for its depth and context-driven approach. Instead of just relying on SIC codes or agreement texts, we first enrich the descriptions of each intangible. This enables a deeper understanding of the asset's real-world application, leading to more precise categorization. Crucially, we classify each intangible into up to four relevant industries, ensuring a multifaceted and accurate representation that reflects the true scope and application of the intellectual property, thereby providing our users with exceptionally reliable and nuanced data.

Our database's size reflects our dedication to precision and relevance, rather than sheer volume. We adhere to a 'one agreement, one record' principle, ensuring each entry is unique and meaningful. Unlike other databases that inflate their numbers with duplications for different aspects of the same agreement, our focus is on providing clear, concise, and accurate records. This approach guarantees that our database, while extensive, remains free of redundant or unrelated entries, making it a more efficient and reliable resource for professionals in intangible asset valuation and transfer pricing.

In our database, the DEMPE (Development, Enhancement, Maintenance, Protection, and Exploitation) analysis for transfer pricing incorporates a unique visual tool. This tool showcases clause excerpts, delineating how assets, functions, and risks align under different parties involved in the agreement. This visual representation aids in easily understanding the allocation of responsibilities. Our detailed approach, supplemented by this interactive feature, offers comprehensive insights into the role of DEMPE in valuation, thereby enhancing the utility and relevance of our data for sophisticated asset evaluation.

Our database uniquely handles tiered royalty rate structures by capturing all rates within an agreement. For statistical calculations like the interquartile range, users can choose to analyze using the highest rate, the lowest rate, or the average. This flexibility allows for comprehensive 'what-if' analyses, enabling users to explore different scenarios and understand the full spectrum of implications in their transfer pricing and IP valuation efforts. This approach provides a versatile and realistic view of royalty rate structures.
