Search Prior Art
99Search for prior art relevant to a specific invention or patent claim. Covers patent literature, non-patent literature (academic papers, products, open source), defensive publications, and standard-essential patents. Use when evaluating whether an invention is novel and non-obvious before filing, challenging the validity of an existing patent, supporting a freedom-to-operate analysis, documenting a defensive publication, or responding to a patent office action questioning novelty or obviousness.
Assess Ip Landscape
95Map the intellectual property landscape for a technology domain or product area. Covers patent cluster analysis, white space identification, competitor IP portfolio assessment, freedom-to-operate preliminary screening, and strategic IP positioning recommendations. Use before starting R&D in a new technology area, when evaluating market entry against incumbents with strong patent portfolios, preparing for investment due diligence, informing a patent filing strategy, or assessing freedom-to-operate risk for a new product.
Extract Contract Clause Data
97Extract parties, dates, and clauses from a contract into structured JSON for legal review workflows.
Screen Trademark
96Screen a proposed trademark for conflicts and distinctiveness before filing. Covers trademark database searches (TMview, WIPO Global Brand Database, USPTO TESS), distinctiveness analysis using the Abercrombie spectrum, likelihood of confusion assessment using DuPont factors and EUIPO relative grounds, common law rights evaluation, and goods/services overlap analysis. Produces a conflict report with a risk matrix. Use before adopting a new brand name, logo, or slogan — distinct from patent prior art search, which uses different databases, legal frameworks, and analysis methods.
