What it does
Provides an analyst-grade deep dive on any single patent the moment you ask for it. You supply a patent number or link; the workflow scrapes the filing, researches surrounding prior art and the assignee's portfolio, and produces a structured brief on claims, intent, and your potential freedom-to-operate exposure.
When to use it
Use it for one-off investigations: a patent surfaces in a board meeting, a deal diligence, or a litigation scare, and you need a thorough read fast rather than waiting on outside counsel for a first pass.
How it works
- 1A manual trigger accepts a patent number or URL and optional focus question.
- 2Firecrawl scrapes the full patent page for claims, abstract, and assignee.
- 3A Brave search gathers prior-art references and related filings for context.
- 4An agent produces the deep-dive brief: claim-by-claim breakdown, prior-art positioning, the filer's likely strategic intent, and freedom-to-operate flags.
- 5The brief is saved as a Notion page and a summary with the link is posted to Slack.
