A first look at patents that could block your launch.
Produces a preliminary patent-risk memo with claim charts, unresolved questions, and next steps for patent counsel.
When to use it
Use when evaluating potentially blocking patents, assessing launch concerns, or preparing initial claim charts before patent counsel review.
Give it a product or process description; it asks intake questions and saves a patent-risk memo with preliminary claim charts.
What you provide
A connected patent-research MCP, such as Solve Intelligence Patents, enables preliminary searching; without one, the workflow proceeds using user-supplied patents.
