A "lightbulb" can be an "illumination device", "electric lamp", or "luminaire". Traditional searches find one. We find them all. Our semantic engine searches by meaning—not just words—across 160M+ patents and 1B+ documents, then shows you what matters in an interactive heatmap.
Trusted by leading organizations
Inventors describe the same concept in countless ways. Traditional searches miss what they can't predict. We don't.
Our semantic engine understands concepts, not just terms. Find prior art across languages and terminologies—even when inventors describe the same thing completely differently.
See the entire patent landscape at a glance. Our interactive heatmap visualizes relevance across all results, so you instantly know where to focus your attention.
Every document scored and ranked against your claims. No more drowning in results—get a clear picture of what's relevant and why, with verbatim quotes as evidence.
Submit your patent or invention. Get back a complete landscape with every relevant document found, scored, and mapped.
Enter a patent number or describe your invention. Our system automatically extracts key claims and technical features for analysis.
Our engine searches by meaning across 160M+ patents and 1B+ documents—finding relevant prior art regardless of terminology, language, or phrasing.
See everything at once. Our heatmap shows relevance across all results, letting you zoom from helicopter view to specific documents in seconds.
Generate court-ready documents including claim charts, novelty reports, and FTO opinions in formats suitable for US and EU proceedings.

Whether you're a law firm, R&D team, or IP investor, Patgrid adapts to your specific needs.
Accelerate patent prosecution and litigation with comprehensive searches and professional claim charts.
Validate innovation before filing and identify potential conflicts early to focus development on truly novel aspects.
Make informed investment decisions with comprehensive portfolio analysis and market intelligence.
Decode the complex web of global innovation with comprehensive landscape reports that bridge raw patent data and executive strategy.
Our comprehensive landscape reports provide a 360-degree view of any technology sector. By combining semantic AI search with big-data visualization, we help you make data-driven R&D and legal decisions.
Each report is a deep-dive dossier that bridges the gap between raw patent data and executive strategy:
Unsupervised machine learning (HDBSCAN) automatically groups patents into natural "Technology Clusters," revealing the true sub-domains of an industry.
Comprehensive leaderboards and "Competitor Territory Maps" show not just who has the most patents, but where their specific technical strengths lie.
Year-over-year filing trends identify whether a technology is emerging, maturing, or entering a period of decline.
Breakdown of where competitors are protecting their IP (US, China, Europe, etc.), signaling their intended commercial markets.
Geometric gap analysis identifies "under-patented" areas—potential goldmines for new R&D and high-value patent filings.
Visual "Strategic Movement" analysis tracks how a competitor's research focus has shifted over time.
A PatGrid report is more than a list of patents—it's a roadmap for competitive advantage:
Identify potential "patent thickets" and high-influence patents that may pose Freedom to Operate challenges.
Avoid "reinventing the wheel" by seeing what's already built and focusing resources on technological white spaces.
Discover startups and non-traditional players with high-quality IP that could be ripe for acquisition.
Compare your portfolio's vitality against industry leaders to ensure your IP spending is efficient.
Understand legal barriers in specific countries before launching a product internationally.

Get answers to common questions about Patgrid and AI-powered patent analysis.
Traditional tools require you to guess which words inventors might have used. Patgrid searches by meaning—understanding that a "fastening mechanism" and a "clip assembly" might describe the same thing. This semantic approach typically finds 40% more relevant prior art. Plus, every result is automatically analyzed and scored, so you see what matters instantly in our interactive heatmap.
No, AI augments rather than replaces patent attorneys. Patgrid automates time-consuming research tasks, allowing attorneys to focus on high-value analysis, strategy, and client advice. The final professional judgment always remains with qualified human experts.
We search all major patent offices including USPTO, EPO, WIPO, JPO, and CNIPA—covering 160M+ patent documents from 72+ jurisdictions. We also search 1B+ non-patent literature documents including scientific articles, technical standards, and academic papers for comprehensive prior art coverage.
Traditional searches only find exact matches to your query terms. But inventors describe the same concept in countless ways—across languages, industries, and time periods. Our semantic engine understands meaning, so it finds relevant documents regardless of terminology. Every result includes verbatim quotes showing exactly why it's relevant.
No. Patgrid provides AI-powered patent analysis tools for research purposes only. All analyses should be reviewed by qualified patent attorneys or IP professionals before making any legal or business decisions.
We maintain enterprise-grade security with EU data residency (AWS Paris Region), SOC 1/2/3 compliance, and ISO 27001/27017/27018/9001 alignment. All data is encrypted and we are fully GDPR compliant.
