Using AI to Rank and Prioritize Invention Submissions
You’re building fast. Your team’s inventing fast. New ideas are coming in from every direction. But here’s the thing no one really talks about—what do you do with all those invention submissions? Some ideas are brilliant. Some need more work. Others might already be covered by patents out there. And you don’t have time to…

The Future of Invention Disclosure: Hybrid Human-AI Workflows
If you’re building something new—writing code, designing systems, solving real problems—then what you’re doing might be worth protecting. That’s where invention disclosure comes in. It’s the first step to filing a patent. But let’s be honest, it’s a step most founders dread. What is invention disclosure, really? A tool for speed, clarity, and protection Most…

What In-House Legal Teams Want from AI Disclosure Systems
Let’s be real. AI is moving fast. And companies are building faster than ever. That means a lot of new ideas, a lot of code, and a lot of invention. But here’s the thing most teams forget: if you don’t protect what you’re building, someone else can take it. That’s where legal teams come in.…

Case Studies: How Companies Use AI to Improve Disclosure Quality
Let’s get right to it. When most founders think about patents, they think of paperwork, lawyers, and waiting. They think of a slow, expensive process that’s hard to understand and even harder to get right. But that’s changing—fast. And AI is playing a big part in it. How a Robotics Startup Used AI to Speed…

AI-Driven Invention Disclosure: Challenges and Opportunities Ahead
Every big idea starts with a spark. A flash of insight. Something new that could change how people live, work, or play. But turning that spark into a real invention is not enough. Protecting it matters just as much. Without protection, someone else can copy it, build on it, and even claim it as their…

Why Human Review Still Matters in AI-Assisted Disclosures
Let’s be real for a second. AI is changing the game. It writes. It codes. It helps you move fast. And in the world of patents, that speed can feel like magic. But here’s the catch. Speed without control is risky. Especially when it comes to your inventions. Especially when you’re building something that matters.…

How to Use AI to Align Invention Disclosure with Patent Strategy
Let’s be real. You’re building something new. Maybe it’s a product. Maybe it’s deep tech. Whatever it is, it’s yours. And it’s valuable. But while you’re racing to ship and grow, there’s this nagging question: How do I protect what I’m building without slowing down? Why Most Invention Disclosures Don’t Lead to Great Patents The…

Streamlining University Tech Transfer with AI Invention Tools
Every day, university labs are buzzing with ideas. Professors, grad students, and research teams are building things that could shape the future—clean energy breakthroughs, advanced medical devices, software that changes how we live and work. These ideas often start small. A prototype here. A proof of concept there. But when the right ideas get protected…

How AI Improves Collaboration Between Inventors and Attorneys
If you’re building something new, something smart, something that could change your industry—you need to protect it. That’s where patents come in. But here’s the hard part: working with a patent attorney can feel like speaking two totally different languages. The messy reality of inventing something new Innovation doesn’t wait for paperwork When you’re heads-down…

AI in Invention Capture: Balancing Speed and Legal Rigor
Building something new is hard enough. Protecting it shouldn’t make it harder. That’s where AI steps in. It’s fast. It’s smart. It saves time. But when it comes to capturing inventions—the early, raw ideas behind what you’re building—speed can sometimes get in the way of doing things right. And doing things right matters. Especially when…
