40% Revenue Reclaimed in 30 Days
Dozens of foreign knockoffs removed from Amazon through a single IP complaint, without federal litigation.
Foreign sellers flooded Amazon with cheap copies of our client’s patented product, cutting sales by 40% and damaging their brand. Using Amazon Brand Registry and a targeted IP complaint built on a single strong patent claim, we removed every infringing listing without costly federal litigation. Our client’s full market share and original profit margins were restored within a month.
Competitor Removed in 7 Days
A rival claimed they "designed around" our client's patent, but APEX proved otherwise and turned the dispute into a licensing deal.
A large domestic competitor launched a rival version of our client’s patented kitchen product just before the holiday season, claiming their design was different enough to avoid infringement. We initiated an APEX proceeding and proved that every claim limitation was met despite the competitor’s minor structural change. Amazon ruled in our client’s favor, the listing came down in seven days, and our client turned the outcome into a licensing deal that generated a new stream of revenue.
100+ Listings Removed. 10 Licensing Deals Signed.
Continuous marketplace monitoring turned a chronic knockoff problem into a portfolio of passive revenue streams.
New knockoffs of our client’s patented outdoor products were appearing on Amazon every month, undercutting prices and eroding brand trust. We built a continuous monitoring and enforcement program that filed over 10 successful IP complaints in the first month alone, removing more than 100 infringing listings. We were able to convert infringing sellers into licensees, generating 10 new passive revenue streams for our client while giving them quality control over every product sold under the agreements.
One Missing Feature Saved the Listing
A competitor's patent claim fell apart when we proved key structural elements were absent from our client's product.
A competitor initiated an APEX proceeding accusing our client’s top-selling smartphone mount of patent infringement and demanding its removal. Our analysis revealed that multiple structural features from the accuser’s patent claim were entirely absent from our client’s product. We presented detailed claim charts proving non-infringement, and Amazon ruled in our client’s favor, keeping the listing active and preserving the R&D investment behind it.
Years of Sales History Killed a Patent Claim
Supply chain records proved our client's product predated the accuser's patent, neutralizing the threat permanently.
A rival brand weaponized a newly issued utility patent against our client’s best-selling product, aiming to force a takedown and extract licensing fees. We uncovered supply chain records, manufacturing documentation, and historical listing data proving our client had sold their product years before the accuser’s patent was even filed. Amazon accepted the on-sale bar defense, our client’s listing stayed live through peak season, and the accuser’s patent was effectively neutralized from future use against our client.
Patent Troll Withdrew in Days
We bypassed APEX entirely by taking the fight to federal court, forcing the opponent to drop their complaint and sign a covenant not to sue.
A patent-holding entity targeted our client’s new product with an ambiguous utility patent and pushed for an APEX proceeding. Instead of mounting a defense within the constraints of the APEX system, we shifted the forum by filing a federal lawsuit seeking a declaratory judgment that the patent was invalid. Within days, Amazon paused the APEX proceeding. Facing the cost of defending weak claims in court, the opponent withdrew their Amazon complaint and signed a covenant not to sue, permanently protecting our client’s product and revenue.
