USPTO Patent Search

Search USPTO patents for prior-art and patent research. Built for IP counsel, brand teams, researchers and AI agents.

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": "artificial intelligence",
"limit": 100
}

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

📊 What you get

Clean JSON, one record per patent (full output has 22 fields):

  • abstract — Abstract
  • abstract_snippet — Abstract snippet
  • assignee — Assignee
  • cited_by_count — Cited by count
  • cited_patents — Cited patents
  • cited_patents_count — Cited patents count
  • claims_count — Claims count
  • claims_text — Claims text
  • cpc_classifications — Cpc classifications
  • detected_at — Detected at

Pricing: $0.10 per patent (Pay-Per-Event) — about 10 patents per $1.
