PatProbe AI, frequently asked questions
What is PatProbe AI?
PatProbe AI is IIPRD's in-house AI-powered patent search and discovery tool, built on a customized, proprietary model and operated manually by our patent experts. It combines semantic, claim-trained AI with hands-on expert review to support prior art search, patentability assessment, infringement analysis, and competitive intelligence with high accuracy and coverage.
How is AI patent search different from keyword search?
Traditional keyword search depends on exact terms and misses conceptually similar disclosures. PatProbe AI uses semantic understanding of technical concepts and embedding-based similarity, so it surfaces relevant prior art, including hard-to-detect X citations, even when the wording differs.
Is PatProbe AI fully automated?
No. PatProbe AI is an in-house, expert-operated tool. It is built on a customized model, and our analysts run every search and validate every result manually. The AI accelerates the work; our patent experts make the final judgments.
How does PatProbe AI reduce false positives and hallucinations?
PatProbe AI uses custom-trained, in-house models tuned for patent data to reduce misclassification, and expert reviewers validate results manually. This expert-operated approach avoids common large language model errors and keeps findings trustworthy.
What types of searches and analyses does it support?
It supports prior art and novelty searches, patentability assessment, freedom-to-operate screening, infringement and claim-comparison analysis, patent image and code-based search, classification and clustering, competitive intelligence, and AI-assisted drafting.
Can PatProbe AI generate claim charts and summaries?
Yes. Generative AI features produce concise patent summaries and AI-assisted claim charts that map claims to technical features, which experts then review and refine for infringement and patentability work.
Is my invention and search data kept confidential?
Yes. Searches and invention disclosures are handled within IIPRD's confidential, access-controlled environment, aligned with applicable contractual and confidentiality obligations.
