Prior art search
Accurate, fast prior art search.
From the first spark of an idea to office-action strategy, our AI-driven prior-art engine guides, verifies and accelerates every step of innovation.
Prior-art intelligence that powers everything we do
Our domain-tuned ML combines with LLM to scan 80+ million global patent publications and technical literature to surface truly novel patterns others miss. The same search core shows up in three key touch-points of the IP Copilot experience
Select claims or Identify features
Whether simply selecting claims to invalidity, or drop a document into IP Copilot, we make it simple to search. If you drop documents into IP Copilot our system will evaluate the content, and generate a list of features to search.
Interactive art charts
From the moment you begin with our search, you have the ability to refine the search. By default, we look for the best wholistic reference, then let you refine with “focus searches” on particular features. Alternatively, edit the chart at any time.
Reference citations & scores
The prior art references come ranked by score. One key aspect to our system is it combines classical ML & LLMs. IP Copilot, can read hundreds of patents and find citations for each feature. We are >97% accurate and improving all the time.
Interactive claim-by-limitation maps
Instantly visualize every claim limitation against the most relevant prior-art references—equally powerful for patentability or invalidity reviews.
Color-coded relevance bars and confidence scores spotlight the killer art (or reveal the crucial gap) in seconds.
One-click deep links into the specification let you validate findings fast and keep your claims alive.

What our clients say
“IP Copilot has been a valuable addition to my patent practice, simplifying the process of creating patent invention disclosures. By significantly streamlining this often time-consuming and critical initial step, IP Copilot enables me to start working on patent applications sooner and minimizes the back-and-forth with clients, which frees them up to focus on their technology and business instead of writing invention disclosures. In addition, the initial patentability searches it provides helps me to better understand the invention, which results in a better invention disclosure. Overall, IP Copilot has streamlined my workflow, allowing me and my clients to focus on higher-value work with greater efficiency.”
