RoyaltyRange

What RoyaltyRange does

RoyaltyRange is a private B2B data and software company headquartered in London that provides comparables databases and analytical tools for international transfer pricing, IP valuation, and intercompany pricing. Its core offering consists of four proprietary databases — CompID (100+ million private and public companies with detailed financials, 65+ filters, and NACE/SIC activity codes), Royalty Rates (third-party license and franchise agreements with up to 50 comparability factors and DEMPE functional analysis), Service Fees (comparable service agreements across 30+ service types), and Loan Rates (comparable intercompany loan terms) — plus four analytical tools covering TNMM/CPM benchmarking, royalty benchmarking, DEMPE analytics, and creditworthiness estimation. The platform is positioned for OECD BEPS Action 8-10 and US Treas. Reg. §1.482 compliance, and targets multinational enterprises, Big Four and large advisory firms, and tax authorities across 100+ countries.

The company makes money primarily through tailored annual database subscriptions bundled with unlimited searches and live expert support, supplemented by a transactional One Search service (€800–900 per report) that delivers initial results within hours at no cost and converts satisfied users into paid data purchases or subscriptions. GTM is consultative and direct: a free One Search entry point and freemium trials feed into demos, inside-sales follow-up, and customized subscription packages. The company reports 1,700+ clients across 100+ countries and lists EY, KPMG, Deloitte, BDO, RSM, and other major advisory firms as named customers. In June 2025 it launched CompID AI, an AI-powered tool that automates the end-to-end benchmarking workflow, positioning the platform as a challenger to Dun & Bradstreet and Moody's in the transfer pricing comparables market. The company is venture-backed, having raised a €4M+ round in June 2023 led by Presto Ventures with Trind Ventures and ZGI Capital, alongside an earlier 2017 Practica Capital seed.

Direct peers

• RoyaltyStat: RoyaltyStat is a direct peer — it operates a comparable royalty rates and economic analysis database used for transfer pricing and IP valuation benchmarking, with a similar target buyer (Big Four, advisory firms, MNEs). Same product category and same customer ecosystem.
• ktMINE: ktMINE provides IP royalty rate data, license agreement comparables, and intangible asset valuation tools — closely overlapping with RoyaltyRange's Royalty Rates Database and DEMPE analytics use cases for IP valuation professionals.

Broad incumbents

• Bureau van Dijk (Moody's): Bureau van Dijk (Moody's) is one of the two incumbents RoyaltyRange explicitly positions against. Its Orbis database covers hundreds of millions of private and public companies globally and is widely used for transfer pricing benchmarking by Big Four firms.
• Dun & Bradstreet: Dun & Bradstreet is the other half of the duopoly RoyaltyRange names, providing global company financials used in transfer pricing studies via products like the D&B Hoovers and TP-focused datasets. Massive data assets and enterprise relationships are structural barriers for RoyaltyRange.
• Wolters Kluwer (CCH / OneSource Transfer Pricing): Wolters Kluwer's CCH and OneSource suites include transfer pricing documentation software and benchmarking data aimed at the same Big Four and corporate tax buyer as RoyaltyRange, and could expand into adjacent royalty comparables.
• Bloomberg Tax: Bloomberg Tax provides tax news, primary sources, and transfer pricing research used by the same enterprise and advisory buyer cohort. It competes for the workflow attention RoyaltyRange seeks to own.
• Intangible Business (Kroll): Kroll (formerly Duff & Phelps and Intangible Business) provides IP valuation, transfer pricing, and royalty rate benchmarking services to MNEs and law firms — overlapping with RoyaltyRange's IP valuation and royalty rate use cases, primarily as a services-led competitor.

Regional players

• Valuation Consulting Group / Valuation Research Corporation (VRC): VRC and similar valuation boutiques provide IP royalty rate benchmarking services and proprietary databases for transfer pricing. They compete for the same MNE IP valuation engagements though often via bespoke services rather than self-serve subscriptions.

Emerging players

• Octopus Intelligence (TP Analytics): Octopus and similar emerging TP-analytics platforms offer comparable-company search and benchmarking tools with a similar self-serve, AI-augmented angle to RoyaltyRange's CompID AI — a likely next-generation competitor in the same workflow.
• PitchBook Data (Morningstar): PitchBook provides private company financials, M&A comparables, and valuation multiples increasingly used in PE/VC and M&A transfer pricing analyses — overlap with RoyaltyRange's adjacent PE/VC and M&A use cases.
