The increasing volume of patent information presents new challenges for companies, researchers and IP professionals. Artificial intelligence offers new opportunities to identify relevant documents more quickly and to efficiently analyse large volumes of data.

 

With AI patent search, ip-search combines modern AI search technologies with the experience and expertise of its patent experts.

 

Based on an invention disclosure, a technical description, a patent number or a freely formulated query, several specialised AI tools are employed – currently IPRally, Origin, Octimine and Ambercite. This enables comprehensive hit lists to be generated in a short space of time.

 

However, AI alone is not the decisive factor: the generated results are subsequently technically reviewed, evaluated and structured by patent experts. Clients receive a concise search report containing the most relevant patent documents identified.

 

AI-assisted patent searching is suitable for:

• Novelty assessments
• Technology searches
• Validity searches
• Freedom-to-operate (FTO) searches
• A quick overview of the state of the art

 

This approach thus offers an efficient way of gaining an early overview of relevant patent information.

 

AI does not replace specialist expertise – it expands the possibilities of patent searching. The combination of several AI-supported search approaches and human assessment enables a quick and targeted initial overview.

 

The AI patent search is currently available for CHF 2,500 excl. VAT.
