For Patent Law Firms

Answer your client's hardest patent question in minutes.

Your clients ask: can this patent make money? PatentOS turns weeks of manual claim charting into a finished answer, JP + US, evidence-backed, ready to send.

The Reality

Clients want answers about monetization. Not searches.

Patent attorneys are flooded with prosecution work. When a client asks "is this patent worth enforcing?", there's no way to answer fast without billing 40 hours of partner time.

How it works

Patent number in. Client-ready answer out.

  1. 01

    Drop in a patent.

    Paste a JP or US patent number, or upload your client's portfolio. Both jurisdictions, native parsing.

  2. 02

    PatentOS builds the case.

    Council review decomposes claims, hunts infringing products across the web, and preserves agreement, dissent, and source trails before findings advance.

  3. 03

    Route review.

    Send important output to your attorneys, PatentOS patent attorneys, or both. Corrections feed back into the system, and unsigned drafts stay clearly marked.

  4. 04

    You bill the work.

    You get a finished claim chart, evidence package, and revenue estimate. Bill at advisory rates instead of associate rates. Or bill flat-fee, pick your model.

Built differently

Why PatentOS is not just another patent search tool.

Most patent tools hand over search results or a single drafted chart. PatentOS runs a bounded council across evidence, logic, citations, and counterarguments, then preserves the dissent log for review.

01

Council verification

Evidence, Logic, Citation, and Counterargument personas independently scrutinize each finding before it advances. Disagreement triggers a review route.

4 council roles
02

Dissent log

Contradictions are retained as reviewable notes instead of being averaged into false confidence. Counsel can see what the system could not settle.

Reviewable uncertainty
03

Source-grounded retrieval

Exact, semantic, and source-specific retrieval work together so every important assertion can point back to product evidence, filings, or technical material.

Cited evidence
04

Synthesizer layer

A synthesizer reconciles council output into a decision record with sources, uncertainty, and escalation notes.

One review record
05

Native JP + US parsing

JPO claim structures with FI/F-term classification handled natively. USPTO means-plus-function detection. Japanese Jitsuyou Shin'an supported. No translation layer.

Both jurisdictions native
06

Confidence routing

High-conviction findings move forward, ambiguous findings route to review, and weak findings are rejected with the reason preserved.

07

Audit trail

Every important decision keeps reasoning notes, source citations, and timestamps. Defensible later. The opposite of black-box output.

08

Japanese subsidiary mapping

Foreign parent → Japan entity automatically resolved (e.g., Apple Inc. → Apple Japan合同会社). Critical for Japan revenue estimation; impossible to do manually at scale.

09

Multimodal evidence

Text excerpts + AI-annotated screenshots + video timestamps + code snippets. Evidence the way litigation actually consumes it, not just URLs.

Use Cases

Where firms use PatentOS today.

Four scenarios where PatentOS saves weeks of partner time and lets you give clients answers no other firm can.

Activation advisory

Clients ask "what's this patent worth?", give them an answer in days, not months. PatentOS estimates Japan domestic revenue of likely infringers.

Pre-litigation claim charts

Element-by-element charts in 知財高裁 format with cited evidence. Ready to attach to a 訴状 or use as a license-negotiation lever.

Annual portfolio review (棚卸し)

Triage hundreds of client patents at once. A/B/C ranking flags which to maintain, license, or let lapse, with revenue evidence behind each call.

Invalidity defense

When your client is the accused party, PatentOS's prior art lane builds invalidity arguments in days. (Phase 2.)

Sample Output

FAQ

Common questions from firms.

Is the data confidential?
Yes. Each firm's analyses are isolated. We never train shared models on your client data. Patent inputs and outputs are encrypted at rest and in transit. SOC2 roadmap published on /trust.
How does billing work for an analysis?
Pricing, delivery time, and review scope are agreed before an engagement. Contact us with the patent count and the decision you need to support.
Can I start with regulars and upgrade to deep-dive later?
Yes. Run a Regular 調査 first to scope, then upgrade to Deep-Dive on the candidates that matter. The regular's findings are reused, the additional scope and fee are agreed in advance.
Can PatentOS integrate with my case management software?
API access is on the Professional and Firm Enterprise tiers. Integrations with Patentinformatics, Patbase, and J-PlatPat are in development.
Is training included?
Yes. Every account gets onboarding and 4 hours of named-attorney support in the first month. Firm Enterprise includes ongoing dedicated support.
Who reviews the AI output?
Expert review can be requested for an analysis. The reviewer, scope, and delivery conditions are agreed for the engagement; AI output does not itself constitute professional sign-off.
