More opportunity for inventors, and less of an obstacle

BY ERIC PINSTEIN

For inventors, navigating the patent landscape has traditionally been a challenge.

Accessing the right tools, interpreting complex documents and affording professional searches are hurdles that make it hard for non-experts to know if their idea is new, investible or worth protecting. But with the rise of AI-powered patent search tools, that’s changing.

Breaking down barriers

What once required specialized knowledge, expensive software or help from a professional is now possible with intuitive, AI-driven platforms designed to be fast, accessible and user-friendly. These tools use machine learning and natural language processing to analyze patent documents more like a human would—only much faster.

Instead of relying solely on keyword matching, AI understands concepts, context and intent. That means you can enter a plain-language description of your idea and the tool will uncover relevant patents, even if they use different terminology.

This is a game-changer, giving you a confident read on what’s out there so you can refine your idea, adjust your strategy or move forward with a patent application or investor pitch.

Finish with the experts

Although AI makes things easier, it’s still important to work with a qualified patent attorney or agent when you’re ready to file. Legal professionals bring deep expertise in drafting strong patent claims, navigating office actions and advising on strategy.

Think of AI as your starting point for insights. Your legal adviser is the partner to help turn your idea into protected IP.

I have written to numerous major and minor companies; over {350} without any success to date. I am an O.R. Nurse ,U.S. Air Force Veteran and product developer of a patented urological O.R. table mounted positioning platform. This innovative device is a safe minimally invasive designed unit that reduces all lack of skills accuracy ; while enhancing hand control flexibility and multitasking capabilities while performing all types of urological procedures. Please give any and all information as to how -Fluidityig IQ- can assist me in obtaining an interested prospect for my patented system. My patented medical device is a safe class-1-FDA-510K clearance compared to the highly complex and extremely expensive Robotic Da Vinci system.
