01
Define the subject and comparison boundaries first
Logo similarity, textual overlap, software features and technical-solution characteristics do not share one universal method. Identify the objects, versions and question. Each area needs suitable expertise and material. Avoid asking for a predetermined infringement finding: specialist analysis can establish properties, similarities and differences, while their legal significance depends separately on rights, use conditions and the other circumstances of the particular dispute rather than the comparison alone or its percentage output.
02
Versions and provenance affect the result’s meaning
Gather source files, publication copies, version records and available date information. An edited copy may not represent the object at issue. Preserve digital originals and transfer history without modifying them for comparison convenience. Restricted information needs an agreed access process and limitations. The public form is for describing the task, not uploading source code, confidential developments or a complete rights dossier before scope and secure transfer arrangements have been established.
03
An explained comparison matters more than one similarity score
An automatic overlap percentage does not explain what was compared or why the features matter to the question. Findings should describe the approach, objects, observed characteristics and limitations. Questions spanning disciplines may require a suitable combination of specialists. Discuss source availability and the output before instruction. Fees depend on object volume, expertise and comparison depth; producing a desired legal conclusion cannot be the condition defining a sound and independent expert examination.

Does an overlap percentage prove copyright infringement?
No. It does not replace object analysis and legal assessment. The comparison method, nature of similarities and circumstances of use matter.
Can software source code be examined?
Yes, with an appropriate question, expertise and lawful access. The required source material and secure transfer process are agreed separately.
