USPTO Patent Grants Tracker

Which grants actor? This is the alerting one — scheduled runs surface only NEW grants matching your assignee/keyword watch. For the full bulk grant dataset, use USPTO Patent Grants. Track new USPTO patent grants matching your watch. Built for IP counsel, brand teams, researchers and AI agents.

⏰ Run this as a grant watch (recommended)

Every IP registry actor is a monitoring subscription, not a one-shot lookup. Schedule a weekly sweep and catch new filings as they land:

  "query": "Apple Inc",

}

Weekly cron (0 8 * * 1) turns this into an always-on grant watch.
