The Best Defense Is a Good Defense
RPX reduces patent risk in the most direct way possible: we remove patents – pre-litigation and out of active litigation – before they can become a costly problem for our clients. We have spent over $4 billion to date to defensively acquire rights to more than 200,000 patent assets from the market. And it’s working.

RPX Is the Proven Solution to Patent Risk
RPX has changed the way companies fight patent assertions. Instead of wasting billions of dollars on fruitless legal confrontations, we apply capital to acquire patents rights and prevent those litigations from happening.
The result: far fewer patents available for assertion campaigns; far less litigation; and far less cost and risk for members of the RPX network. (For more on the RPX platform click here.)
There’s Safety in Numbers. Huge Cost Savings, Too.
The RPX network has proven that competitors can successfully collaborate to fight an expensive industry-wide problem. And as our membership grows, so does the scale and efficiency of our defensive acquisition efforts. The more than 250 clients of RPX have saved over $7 billion in avoided costs.
