Patent research often involves finding the right keywords, synonyms, and classes, searching through large amounts of data, filtering out relevant documents, and keeping track of everything.
This is exactly where our patent software comes in: with modern AI functions, the research process becomes not only faster but also more precise. Instead of laboriously working your way through hit lists, intelligent technology leads you more quickly to the patents that really matter.
This article marks the start of our blog series on the AI-supported functions of our software. In this first part, we introduce you to key features that will make your patent search and organization noticeably more efficient.
AI full-text search – find what really matters faster
Our AI-powered full-text search not only analyzes terms, but also understands the context of the content, delivering relevant results. You will find not only exactly matching patents, but also those that are thematically similar or functionally related. And with significantly less effort.
Professional researchers can combine AI search with classic search. The combination of both worlds combines traceability and precision.
AI sorting – relevant hits first
Whether you have a patent document, a patent number, or just a technical description text, our software automatically sorts search results according to content relevance.
This means that you see the truly relevant documents first, regardless of keywords or classifications.
Smart search for similar patents
With our software, you can now search for similar documents. The hits are displayed in a new results list, sorted by relevance, so that the most similar patents appear at the top.
A special feature is the option to set a similarity score. The higher the score, the more closely the patents found must match those selected. This allows you to narrow down the results to the truly relevant intellectual property rights.
This feature offers a major advantage, especially for analysis and filtering: relevant classes, applicants, or technology areas can be identified more quickly – and you can find the patents that really matter more efficiently.
Automatic classification – greater precision, less effort
Our automatic classification saves you time and improves the quality of your patent organization.
The classifier continuously optimizes itself through machine learning, meaning your results get better and better over time.
A particular advantage is the new option to use source folders and target folders separately. This allows you to use clear and unambiguous patents for training. This ensures reliable classification of your documents.
The result: you maintain an overview at all times, reduce manual sorting work, and can concentrate more on evaluating the relevant documents.
Conclusion: Greater efficiency through intelligent AI support!
Not every patent search has to be complicated and time-consuming. With AI-powered features such as full-text search, automatic sorting, similarity search, and classification, you can find the information that is truly relevant more quickly. This leaves you more time for what really matters: the targeted analysis and evaluation of relevant patent information. Here, too, we support you with intelligent AI functions.
