On-Demand Patent Deep Dive Report
Triggered by a webhook with a competitor name, an agent gathers that company's full patent history, analyzes filing velocity and technology focus.
How it runs
The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

What it does
Produces a focused, single-competitor patent dossier on request. Give it a company name and it returns a structured analysis of their entire patent portfolio — filing trends over time, dominant technology areas, and recent strategic shifts.
When to use it
Use when a specific deal, partnership evaluation, or board question demands a thorough look at one competitor's IP, rather than the broad quarterly sweep.
How it works
- 1A webhook fires with the target competitor's name and optional date range.
- 2Firecrawl pulls the competitor's full filing history from patent databases.
- 3An agent analyzes filing velocity, technology-area concentration, and notable recent applications, comparing recent activity to historical baselines.
- 4A logic check confirms enough filings were found to warrant a report; sparse results return a short note instead.
- 5The agent writes a formatted deep-dive page — charts described in prose, key findings, and a recommendations section — into the team's Confluence space.
