AI Feature Spotlight: Claim-Focused Result Ranking

Reviewing patents for freedom-to-operate (FTO) or clearance is a critical but time-consuming task. Search results can be overwhelming, and knowing where to start isn’t always obvious. That’s why we built AI Ranking—a feature designed to put the most relevant patents at your fingertips.

What AI Ranking Does

‍

AI Ranking is designed to help users cut through the noise and focus on what matters most. Here’s what it does:

‍

• Takes in a description of your product—either one you provide or one already stored in our system.
• Compares that description to a list of patent documents, with particular attention to the claim scope (the part of a patent that defines the legal boundaries of protection).
• Assigns each document a relevance score based on how closely it matches your product description.
• Sorts and ranks the results so the most relevant documents rise to the top.

‍

The result? A streamlined, prioritized view of the landscape that makes it easier to focus your time where it matters most.

Why It’s a Game-Changer

‍

With AI Ranking, you can:

‍

• Save time: Cut down hours of manual reviewing and dive straight into the patents most relevant to your product.
• Reduce risk: Quickly identify the patents that could present clearance issues before they become problems.
• Work smarter: Focus your expertise on reviewing and interpreting patents instead of sifting through long lists.

‍

A Clearer Path Forward

‍

Patent analysis will always require human expertise, but that expertise is far more valuable when it’s focused on the right documents. AI Ranking ensures you start with the patents most likely to matter, helping you move faster, with greater clarity and confidence.
