PatentSignal goes deep on the patents you have — claim structure, prosecution history, citation networks, and strategic gaps. Analysis grounded in source text, not generic AI summaries.
Whether you bill by the hour or manage a portfolio in-house, PatentSignal fits your workflow.
Compress claim mapping and prosecution history review from hours to minutes. Every conclusion is traceable to source text you can cite in your opinion.
Solo practitioners and small firms get the depth of tools that used to cost $500+/month — without the IT audit, vendor onboarding, or managing partner approval.
PatentSignal shows the reasoning, not just the conclusion. Claim-level attribution means you're not accepting AI output on faith — you're reviewing structured evidence.
Run a first-pass analysis before engaging outside counsel. Arrive at every conversation with structured insight, not blank-page questions. Lawyers bill $400+/hour.
When the CTO asks "what does our patent actually cover?" — give them a real answer, fast. PatentSignal translates claim language into understandable scope assessments.
At $49/month, PatentSignal is an individual expense — not a procurement event. Sign up, run an analysis, and justify the ROI on day one.
You filed patents. Now what? PatentSignal breaks down exactly what each claim covers, where prosecution history created risks, and what your IP position actually means in practice.
Evaluating a company's patent portfolio? Run a structured analysis before you call outside counsel. Understand citation networks, prosecution patterns, and key claims independently.
PatentSignal identifies unclaimed subject matter in your existing patents — continuation opportunities that might be worth filing before the priority window closes.
Most AI patent tools treat documents as flat text. Claims have structure. Rejections map to specific limitations. Prosecution history has narrative arc. PatentSignal is built around that structure.
Upload a patent or enter a publication number. PatentSignal pulls in the full document record automatically — no manual copying.
Our proprietary processing pipeline reads the patent the way a practitioner does — understanding claim structure, prosecution context, and technical scope, not just keywords.
Every output — claim scope, prosecution risk, continuation gaps — is tied to specific language in the document. You see the evidence, not just the conclusion.
The result is a structured patent packet you can query, revisit, and share. Run analyses, ask follow-up questions, and export — all without starting over.
PatentSignal parses the claim tree, maps limitation dependencies, and assesses relative scope. You see which claims are the load-bearing ones and where narrowing language creates risk.
| Claim | Type | Limitations | Scope |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Independent | 4 | |
| 2 | Dep. (1) | 2 | |
| 3 | Dep. (1) | 3 | |
| 7 | Independent | 5 | |
| 8 | Dep. (7) | 2 |
PatentSignal reconstructs the prosecution history so you can see exactly how the claims evolved. Every office action is matched to the claims it targeted. Every amendment is annotated with its strategic context.
Patent Chat is a contextual Q&A interface powered by the Signal Engine. Every answer cites the specific claim language, specification paragraph, or office action text that supports it. No hallucination, no generic summaries.
Citation patterns reveal competitive dynamics. Who is building on top of your patents? What prior art did your examiner rely on most heavily? PatentSignal maps the network and flags what matters.
The specification often describes more than the claims protect. PatentSignal identifies embodiments, configurations, and methods disclosed in the spec but not claimed — potential continuation targets before the prosecution window closes.
For portfolios of multiple patents, PatentSignal Connect maps the citation relationships between patents — yours and theirs. See which of your patents are the hubs, which are isolated, and where competitive overlap is building.
There are excellent tools for finding patents. PatentSignal answers the question that comes after you've found them: what do these actually mean for your position?
Plenty of excellent tools exist for searching across large patent databases. PatentSignal doesn't compete here — we go deep on the patents you already have, not the ones you're still looking for.
General-purpose AI tools treat patents as flat text and produce summaries you can't defend. PatentSignal is built specifically for patent document structure — every output is grounded in source text.
Most professional patent tools require procurement processes, IT audits, and budgets built for large firms. PatentSignal is professional-grade, self-serve, and accessible from day one.
Free forever for one patent. No credit card required. Upgrade when you're ready.
Lawyers bill $300–800/hour. Saving one hour per month more than justifies Pro.
