Review and verification
Editable output, section-level regeneration, and a final consistency review keep the attorney in the approval loop.
AI-Assisted Patent Drafting for Attorneys
Patent drafting software that keeps attorneys in control.
Start from a client transcript, technical document, or invention write-up. Eight sequential drafting agents prepare a structured first draft. You configure, verify, revise, and decide what gets filed.

What patent practices actually need
More drafting capacity. No loss of control.
The purchase decision is not whether AI can produce text. It is whether the workflow gives practitioners enough structure, review, configurability, and supervision to use the output responsibly.
Firm drafting standards
Configure agent prompts with preferred language, claim style, and technology-domain instructions.
Supervised delegation
Use seats and roles so staff can manage intake, associates can run the workflow, and partners can review.
Cleaner intake
Start from client transcripts, technical documents, product materials, or an existing invention write-up.
Clear workflow boundaries
AI prepares the first draft. The attorney owns the judgment.
The workflow can
- Organize intake material into a drafting workflow
- Generate claims, specification, and supporting sections
- Run support, scope, language, and consistency checks
- Regenerate individual sections without restarting the draft
The practitioner still must
- Set firm and matter-specific drafting instructions
- Verify factual, technical, citation, and legal accuracy
- Exercise professional judgment and supervise staff use
- Revise, approve, and decide what is submitted to the USPTO
USPTO guidance applies existing duties of candor, competence, confidentiality, supervision, and reasonable inquiry when practitioners use AI tools.

Eight agents. One document.
Each agent does one job and hands off to the next—modeled on the checkpoints attorneys run through before filing. Minutes, not weeks.
Use Cases
Built for practices of every size
Solo Practitioners
You handle client intake, drafting, prosecution, and practice operations. A blank-page provisional can crowd out higher-judgment work.
Before
Client information arrives across calls, notes, decks, and technical documents. You rebuild the structure manually before substantive review begins.
After
Start from the transcript or documents, run the sequential drafting workflow, then focus your time on verification, strategy, revision, and filing decisions.
Create a repeatable first-draft process without delegating professional judgment.
Firm controls
Make the workflow match how your practice drafts.
Configurable prompts
Adjust instructions by agent, claim style, firm language, and technology domain.
Team seats and roles
Support paralegal intake, associate drafting, and partner review workflows.
Transcript intake
Start from a recorded client interview rather than rebuilding the disclosure from a blank questionnaire.
Document input
Use technical specifications, product materials, and existing invention write-ups as source material.
Section regeneration
Revise a single section without rerunning the full pipeline or discarding the rest of the draft.
Defined review checks
Run support, scope, language, antecedent, and final consistency passes before attorney review.

What That Means For You
Every prompt, template, and quality check in our software was written by working patent attorneys. This isn't ChatGPT with a patent skin — it's the same battle-tested process that licensed attorneys use, made accessible.

Professional responsibility stays visible
Evaluate the drafting tool like client work depends on it.
USPTO and ABA guidance does not prohibit responsible AI use. It does require practitioners to understand the tool, protect client information, supervise its use, and review the output.
Current data-use position
Review-ready policy · Counsel approval pending
The current policy draft states that customer invention materials, patent drafts, and other customer content are not used to train AI models. It also states that service providers may process customer content only to deliver the requested functions under applicable controls.
This is not a compliance certification or legal conclusion. Firms should review the current policy, vendor posture, and their own client obligations before use.
- Review and verify generated work
- Protect client information
- Supervise staff and tool use
- Communicate and bill reasonably

Questions from patent practices
Control, review, team workflow, and pricing—answered plainly.
Does the software replace attorney review?+
No. The workflow prepares a structured first draft and runs defined drafting checks. The practitioner remains responsible for reviewing the facts, legal and technical substance, citations, confidentiality considerations, client communication, and anything submitted to the USPTO.
Can our firm control the drafting style?+
Yes. The attorney product supports configurable prompts for the drafting agents, including firm-specific language, claim-drafting preferences, and technology-domain instructions.
Can paralegals, associates, and partners use different roles?+
Yes. Team seats and role-based access support a workflow where staff can manage intake, associates can run the pipeline, and partners can review the resulting work product.
Can we start from a client interview or technical document?+
Yes. The workflow supports transcript and document input, including technical specifications, product materials, and existing invention write-ups. Attorneys should review the source material and generated draft for accuracy and completeness.
Is client content used to train AI models?+
The current review-ready privacy policy states that customer invention materials, patent drafts, and other customer content are not used to train AI models. That policy remains pending counsel approval, so firms should review the current policy and confirm it meets their own diligence requirements before client use.
How much are the attorney team plans?+
Starter is $699 per month for up to 3 seats and 4 patent orders per month. Growth is $899 for up to 10 seats and 7 orders. Scale is $1,099 for unlimited seats and 12 orders. Enterprise offers custom volume, API access, SSO, and onboarding.
