What GBrain can do with IP Author

IP Author makes patent software for law firms and corporate patent teams, with a corpus of 183 million publications and US prosecution data. Connected to a workspace, GBrain can answer “what prior art comes closest to this invention disclosure?” or summarize how an application’s claims changed during prosecution.

Results are research support, not legal opinions.

  • Search a global patent corpus
  • Run prior art, freedom-to-operate and landscape studies
  • Read file wrappers, claims and citations
  • Compare examiners

From the command line
