Monitor U.S. patent activity with a reliable fallback chain and machine-readable output.

Output First: What You Get

Each run returns structured rows that can be piped to alerts, CRM, or analytics.

{
"patentNumber": "US11234567B2",
"title": "System and method for machine learning optimization",
"abstract": "A system for optimizing neural network training...",
"date": "2025-06-15",
"assignees": ["Google LLC"],
"inventors": ["John Smith", "Jane Doe"],
"cpcCodes": ["G06N3/08", "G06F18/24"],
"claimCount": 15,
"source": "google_patents",
"status": "ok",
"url": "https://patents.google.com/patent/US11234567B2"
}

Input Examples

Demo run (safe trial):

{
"query": "artificial intelligence",
"maxResults": 10,
"demoMode": true
}

Production run:

{
"query": "artificial intelligence machine learning",
"assignee": "Google",
"dateFrom": "2025-01-01",
"maxResults": 25,
"delivery": "webhook",
"webhookUrl": "https://example.com/apify/webhook",
"demoMode": false
}

Demo Mode (Conversion-Friendly, Non-Abusive)

When demoMode=true:

  • Max results are capped at 3
  • Detailed fields are masked
  • Webhook delivery is disabled (dataset only)

Upgrade signal is included in meta.upgradeHint so users know how to unlock full output.

Source Reliability

Fallback order:

  1. PatentsView API (if apiKey is provided)
  2. Google Patents XHR endpoint
  3. Diagnostic NO_DATA row (if all sources fail)

This keeps downstream automations alive even during upstream outages.

Common Use Cases

  • IP and legal teams: competitor filing watch
  • Startup founders: prior-art and landscape scans
  • Investors: portfolio IP due diligence
  • Research teams: patent trend monitoring

Cost Notes

  • No paid third-party API required by default
  • PatentsView API key is optional
