RaySearch®, a Swedish innovation leader in software for cancer treatment, faced growing challenges in managing its complex global patent portfolio. With no formal IP management system in place, the company relied heavily on spreadsheets. By adopting RightHub® from Anaqua - an AI-powered, full-cycle IP management platform - RaySearch streamlined its workflows, enhanced cross-functional collaboration, and shifted its focus from administrative tasks to strategic innovation.
This case study highlights how digital transformation is driving smarter and more efficient IP management.
TESTIMONIAL
“You want to work in an efficient way across the IP lifecycle, so that you can focus on building sharp patent portfolios. That’s what it is all about.”
– Danielle Lewensohn, MSc, PhD
Director of Intellectual Property
RaySearch Laboratories
CHALLENGES
- Global Patent Complexity: Managing a growing portfolio of patents across multiple countries and jurisdictions.
- Lack of Centralized IP Management: Initially relying on Excel spreadsheets, the company lacked a formal IP management system (IPMS), making it difficult to maintain control and efficiency as the IP portfolio grew.
- Workflow Inefficiencies: Traditional systems were not designed for modern IP professionals, leading to excessive time spent on administrative tasks rather than strategic IP development
TESTIMONIAL
“When I came on board here eight years back, no IPMS had been implemented. Rather, we relied on Excel sheets. As the portfolio expanded, we looked for a professional IP management system to match the increasing number of patent matters.”

SOLUTION
RaySearch adopted RightHub from Anaqua, which is the first full-cycle IP Management System built around AI-powered tools for generative and predictive IP workflows. This platform enabled:
Automation of administrative tasks across the IP lifecycle
Collaboration with inventors and R&D teams through an intuitive, accessible interface
Streamlined workflows that integrate patent offices, law firms, and internal stakeholders
BUSINESS OUTCOMES
- Enhanced Efficiency: Significant reduction in manual data handling, freeing up time for strategic IP analysis.
- Cross-Functional Engagement: Inventors and non-IP professionals can now engage directly with the system, improving collaboration and transparency.
- Smarter Knowledge Translation: The platform supports smarter extraction and translation of technical knowledge into valuable IP assets.
“I believe that RightHub® (from Anaqua) is on that path—unpacking workflows, making them more efficient, and helping us translate knowledge in a smart way.”
