Highlights

AI never files or acts alone: every output needs explicit human review and approval.
Pre-screen before you spend: a $15K to $50K dead-end filing becomes a few-dollar check.
PatentX is a tool, not an IP stakeholder: zero ownership over your disclosures or filings.
A 30-minute demo, and your existing portfolio imported by CSV on day one.

Overview

For a university or an IP department, each invention goes through 8 to 15 handoffs and 4 to 12 weeks before filing today, with $15K to $50K+ in external counsel fees, including for ideas that were never patentable. Disclosures arrive by email, prior art search is manual and decisions leave no trace.

PatentX structures the whole lifecycle, from disclosure to filing-ready package, in a governed five-stage path. Four AI services built into the system (not a standalone chatbot) assess patentability, draft the application, estimate commercial viability and screen infringement risk (freedom to operate).

Patent attorneys make every decision: AI never files or acts alone, every action is logged and PatentX claims no rights over inventions. The platform is built for organizations that manage dozens to thousands of inventions a year, not individual inventors.

The problem

8 to 15 handoffs, 4 to 12 weeks and $15K to $50K+ in external counsel fees for every invention, including the ones never patentable in the first place. Disclosures arrive by email and half get lost, prior art search is manual, drafting is billed at $300 to $500 an hour and decisions happen in inboxes, with no trail.

The AI solution

PatentX takes every invention through one governed five-stage path, with human approval at every gate. Two AI workflows embedded in the system (not a standalone chatbot) assess patentability and draft a complete application, backed by prior art search engines and multi-agent pipelines. Every output goes through attorney review before any action.

How it works

Get started
A 30-minute demo, then a 14-day pilot with no credit card; the existing portfolio is imported by CSV on day one.
Disclose the invention
The inventor submits a structured disclosure; metadata and completeness are checked instantly.
Approve
The manager approves in the platform, budget is authorized and an attorney assigned, the same day.
Analyze with AI
Patentability (about 5 min), commercial viability (about 4 min), freedom to operate (about 5 min), application draft (about 15 min).
Review and file
The attorney reviews and finalizes the draft, authorizes filing and exports the package: 3 to 7 days in total according to PatentX.

Five stages, one platform

Humans approve at every gate; AI accelerates the analytical work in between.

Intake
Structured submission; metadata validated, completeness enforced.
Govern
Approval chain: manager sign-off, budget, conflict check.
Analyze
AI patentability: prior art, novelty, recommendation.
Draft
AI drafts claims, specification and drawing descriptions for review.
Review and file
The attorney edits, authorizes filing and exports the package.

Features in detail

Lifecycle tracking

Every invention follows the same path (intake, approval, analysis, drafting, review, filing), with elapsed time, credits used and the next step.

Patentability assessment

Prior art search across patent databases, novelty and non-obviousness analysis, IPC/CPC classification and per-jurisdiction checks.

Patent application draft

Independent and dependent claims, detailed specification, abstract, drawing descriptions and multi-jurisdiction formatting.

Commercial viability

Market size, competitive landscape, valorization paths (licensing, spin-off, partnerships) and obstacles: an advisory report for the transfer office.

Freedom to operate

Element-by-element comparison with third-party granted claims, risk level per reference and design-around options.

Configurable approval chain

Approval chain, manager sign-off, budget authorization and conflict checks, with human decisions at key gates.

Audit trail and transparency

Every action is logged with timestamp, identity and reason; reports cite prior art and reasoning, criterion by criterion.

Privacy and ownership

Data encrypted, isolated per organization and never used to train AI; no rights claimed over disclosures or drafts.

Mobile app

Read-only companion app for iOS and Android: disclosures, approval queue and AI analyses, in English, Arabic and French.

Use cases

Technology transfer office

AI pre-screening weeds out non-patentable ideas before external counsel is engaged, instead of finding out after thousands in fees.

Universities and technology transfer offices

Research center

Every disclosure is captured and traced, from lab notebook to filing package.

Public and private labs

Patent law firm

Assisted drafting produces a first draft in minutes; attorneys focus on strategy and review.

Boutique and mid-size firms

Frequently asked questions

Does PatentX file patents?

No. PatentX never files and never bills a filing: AI produces reports and drafts, which the attorney reviews and approves before any action.

Are our inventions used to train AI?

No. Data is encrypted, isolated per organization and never used to train models.

How long does an analysis take?

According to the website, about 5 minutes for patentability or freedom to operate, 4 minutes for commercial viability and 15 minutes for an application draft, in basic mode.

Which jurisdictions are supported?

The website lists four supported jurisdictions and alignment with USPTO, EPO and SAIP obligations; the number of jurisdictions depends on the plan.

Can we try it before committing?

Yes: a free 14-day pilot, no credit card, with credits to test every service.
