AI invalidity search + infringement analysis for patent litigators.

Two products, two opposite jobs. Invalidate a claim by searching 6.3M U.S. patents and 136.7M papers — anticipation and obviousness, element by element. Or read your portfolio against a target's products to prove infringement. Both score every claim element 0–100 and cite it to the source.

Break the claim with the prior-art landscape.

Paste a claim and a priority date. Search 6.3M U.S. patents and 136.7M scientific papers, then read the field as a heat-map — and assemble anticipation and obviousness, element by element, with citations verified against the source PDFs.

  • Search the whole landscape6.3M U.S. patents (full text) + 136.7M papers, filtered to predate a priority date.
  • Heat-map the readsEvery claim element scored 0–100 against every reference — gaps visible, not averaged away.

Read your portfolio against their products.

Different job, different inputs. Map your patents' claims to a target's product documentation, argue each read through a simulated proceeding, and rank candidates by a calibrated infringement score — with evidence per element.

  • Map claims to productsUpload your portfolio and the target's datasheets — not a public corpus. Mapped element by element.
  • Adversarial verificationA four-phase proceeding: Plaintiff opens, Defense challenges, Plaintiff rebuts, a Judge rules.
  • Evidence from three sourcesProduct datasheets, the web, and your own related patents — weighted per element.
  • Calibrated & rankedA single score blends the verdict with the screening prior; strongest cases surface first.
  • System-claim awareMulti-device claims are flagged so a single-product read doesn't undercount them.

Plaintiff

Every limitation reads on the Hub Pro — gateway, up to 250 wireless nodes, Ethernet/LTE backhaul, and a TDMA mode that schedules slots to avoid collisions.

Defense

The default configuration is contention-based (CSMA); the scheduling limitation isn't met there.

Judgment · Strong 86

All limitations supported on the record; 14[d] rests on the documented TDMA mode — a fact question well-suited to discovery. Advance the candidate.
