You can choose any one of these to enhance efficiency and elevate the overall quality of patent specifications through the use of AI, but be warned - they are not a magic bullet, each will need careful human oversight and moreover, humans will need to amend their output before it is ready to file.

1. Patently Create

   Patently Create provides its AI assistant Onardo™ to significantly reduce the time required for drafting patent applications. Onardo assists in composing various sections of a patent specification, including the technical field, background, summary of the invention, brief description of the figures, detailed description, and abstract. The platform features an integrated in-browser drawing editor enabling users to create and label figures using drag-and-drop interactions. Onardo's natural language processing capabilities extract and group features from claims, facilitating quick and accurate figure referencing.

2. Solve Intelligence

   Solve Intelligence offers an AI-driven tool designed to assist at every stage of the patenting process. It enables users to draft full patent applications, including claims and specifications, from technical descriptions. The platform allows for extensive customization to align with specific drafting styles, catering to different fields, clients, and regions. It also supports jurisdiction-specific and technology-specific models, making it suitable for diverse practices.

3. Paximal

   Paximal automates the creation of initial patent drafts from technical disclosures. Its AI-driven system generates detailed descriptions and claims, which users can edit and refine to meet specific requirements. This streamlines the drafting process, allowing for quicker development of comprehensive patent applications.

4. Added Matter

   Added Matter enhances productivity by rapidly drafting specifications from invention disclosures or claims using AI. It facilitates the review of citations and the generation of arguments for patent prosecution and invalidity, aiding in the preparation of robust patent applications.

5. ClaimMaster

   ClaimMaster focuses on proofreading patent claims to identify issues such as missing antecedent bases, lack of specification support, inconsistent claims and part numbers, and incorrect amendments and status indicators. By integrating with Microsoft Word, it streamlines various aspects of patent practice, improving drafting quality and reducing errors.

6. Qatent

   Qatent assists in creating patent specifications from an initial set of claims. It offers AI-generated suggestions for wording, utilizes autocomplete features, and includes error detection mechanisms. Qatent supports drafting in multiple languages, including English, German, and Chinese, making it versatile for international applications.

7. Rowan Patents

   Rowan Patents enables users to input claims and manually create terms that are used consistently throughout the specification. It automates aspects of the patent preparation and prosecution process, such as formatting and numbering, ensuring compliance with USPTO standards. The platform includes built-in drawing tools, a content library, automated diagram creation, and predictive analytics to streamline the drafting process.

8. PowerPatent

   PowerPatent's Patent Composer tool generates comprehensive patent specifications, including claims, from invention disclosures. It employs generative AI to assist with draft development and modifications, integrating features like docketing and predictive analytics. The platform also integrates with the USPTO’s Private PAIR system, facilitating seamless patent prosecution.

9. IP Author

   IP Author processes invention disclosures and simulates attorney-inventor interviews using ChatGPT and Dolcera’s patent database. It features an office action response module that generates arguments for patent prosecution, aiding in the efficient handling of patent office communications.

10. PatentPal

    PatentPal leverages generative AI to automate the drafting of patent applications. Users can input their claims, and the platform generates corresponding specifications and figures, including flowcharts for methods and block diagrams for systems and devices. The tool also provides detailed descriptions of generated figures, abstracts, and summaries that support all claims. Users can customize generated phrases according to their preferences and export drafts into formats compatible with Word and Visio (or PowerPoint)

More on Patently Create

By leveraging NLP technology, Patently Create helps identify and organise claim features, efficiently describe Figures, and produce high quality labelled diagrams through drag-and-drop part referencing. The text and drawings editing occur in a single in-browser interface so there is no need for additional drawing software like Powerpoint or Visio.

With the help of Onardo, it's straightforward to create figures, as is reordering figures and editing reference numerals and changing parts in the figures. 

The Patently Create roadmap includes templating, computer vision and custom instructions.

Why is patent drafting suited to Generative AI?

Drafting a patent specification is a task that takes humans many hundreds, if not thousands, of hours to learn to do. Those humans have a technical background, up to degree level at least. They study patent law to understand the structure and sections of a patent and how the various sections fulfil different legal requirements.

Because a patent has a structure, it lends itself to AI.  And because there are lots and lots and lots of patents, there is a lot that can be learned about the structure of a patent and the types of technical details that are in a patent.

By utilizing machine learning to automate repetitive tasks, track reference numerals and figure numbers, and provide technical information from the vast repositories of technical information, AI-driven tools can help minimize human error, accelerate patent drafting, and ensure compliance with patent rules.
