The legal industry is changing as trademark professionals handle growing volumes of applications, disputes, and complex global regulations. Finding potential trademark conflicts quickly has become more important than ever. Recognizing innovation in this space, Clarivate has received a major industry award for its trademark risk assessment platform, RiskMark, highlighting its contribution to modern legal technology.
Clarivate Receives 2026 CODiE Award
Clarivate announced that its RiskMark platform has won the 2026 CODiE Award for Best AI Tool for Lawyers. The recognition honors software that delivers meaningful innovation for legal professionals and supports better decision-making through advanced technology.
The award reflects the platform’s role in helping trademark professionals assess potential trademark conflicts more efficiently while working with trusted legal and trademark data.
RiskMark Supports Trademark Professionals
Clarivate launched RiskMark in 2025 to help trademark professionals evaluate the likelihood of confusion between trademarks. The platform combines predictive and generative artificial intelligence in a single workflow to analyze trademark similarities and generate legally grounded draft arguments supported by relevant legal principles.
RiskMark is designed to assist lawyers during trademark clearance and conflict assessment by bringing together trademark records and litigation intelligence in one place. This approach allows legal teams to review possible risks faster while maintaining a strong legal foundation for their decisions.
Built on Extensive Global Trademark Data
According to Clarivate, RiskMark analyzes 172.5 million trademark records across 188 jurisdictions together with more than five million court and administrative decisions.
The platform uses data from CompuMark, Clarivate’s trademark research solution, along with litigation intelligence from Darts-ip. It evaluates trademarks across several factors, including visual, phonetic, semantic, and goods-and-services similarities, while referencing relevant legal decisions to support its assessments.
By combining these trusted data sources, RiskMark provides trademark professionals with comprehensive information during the trademark review process.
Company Highlights the Importance of Trusted Data
François Neuville, Senior Vice President, Brand IP at Clarivate, said the company is honored to receive the 2026 CODiE Award. He noted that trademark professionals face an increasingly complex global landscape, changing case law, and expanding volumes of trademark data.
He added that RiskMark brings together trusted data, legal expertise, and advanced technology into a single workflow, helping professionals reduce manual research from hours to minutes while supporting more informed trademark decisions.
Recognition Adds to RiskMark’s Achievements
The latest CODiE Award follows another industry recognition for the platform. In 2025, RiskMark received the LegalTech Breakthrough Award for Predictive AI Solution of the Year, reflecting continued recognition of its approach to trademark risk assessment.
Since its launch, RiskMark has become part of Clarivate’s broader intellectual property portfolio, which supports law firms, businesses, and trademark professionals with research, analytics, and litigation intelligence.
Looking Ahead
The 2026 CODiE Award marks another milestone for Clarivate as it continues to expand its legal technology offerings. As trademark activity continues to grow across global markets, professionals increasingly rely on trusted data and efficient research tools to make informed decisions.
With RiskMark now recognized as the Best AI Tool for Lawyers at the 2026 CODiE Awards, Clarivate has strengthened its position in the intellectual property technology market while reinforcing its focus on helping trademark professionals work more efficiently with reliable, data-driven insights.
