IPRally achieves ISO 27001 certification

We’re excited to announce that IPRally has achieved ISO 27001 certification, making us one of the few companies in our field to receive this designation. Great news for IPRally, but even more so for our customers.

For those unfamiliar with ISO 27001, it is a globally recognized standard that outlines the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining and continually improving an information security management system. This certification confirms that we have implemented stringent security systems and processes to protect sensitive information belonging to our clients. But it's also about having a holistic approach to security that covers everything from physical security to employee awareness and training.

“As a leader in AI patent search, we are inventing new ways of solving our customers' problems. Information security is a hygiene factor for anyone handling intellectual property data, but for a technology pioneer like IPRally it’s absolutely crucial”, says Sakari Arvela, CEO and Co-founder at IPRally.

“Achieving ISO 27001 certification is a testament to our commitment to protect sensitive information at multiple levels of our operations. Surprisingly few players in the IP industry meet this standard, so we’re really proud to have it implemented. Our clients trust us with their most valuable assets, and we take that responsibility very seriously", he says.

The rigorous audit process gave us an opportunity to evaluate our security practices and identify areas for improvement. IPRally now has an even stronger security posture, which will benefit our clients immensely. We will continue to review, update and improve our processes to ensure that we maintain the highest levels of security for our customers.

When systems start talking: IPRally's journey toward a virtual IP department

Something new is happening: people talk to systems in plain language, systems talk back, and systems have started talking to each other the same way. As AI climbs from the small decisions to the large ones, the question for IP work is no longer whether it gets automated, but how to stay in control once it is. Co-founder and CPO, Sakari Arvela, lays out where this leads – through IPRally's new API and upcoming MCP support toward a virtual IP department that's always on – and why humans end up more important in that picture, not less.

What does quality actually mean for automated patent search?

When agentic AI tools entered the patent search market, quality became the topic everyone wanted to talk about, and one of the hardest to discuss honestly.
