Minesoft Origin is a global patent intelligence and search platform powered by artificial intelligence. State of the art techniques in Natural Language Processing (NLP), intelligent analytics and collaborative tools have been integrated into a modern, intuitive interface to help connect innovation throughout the organisation.
Discover the simplicity of AI searching using powerful Natural Language Processing. Empower your team to make better decisions in fast-moving markets.
Easily search for quantities and ranges and combine with your advanced search query with cutting-edge quantity searching. Take advantage of our flexible search features including unlimited left-hand truncation & proximity operators
Save time by easily locating chemical structures within patent documents. The user-friendly interface offers multiple ways of importing compounds. Search by identity, similarity, or substructure, with numerous filtering options available.
Search for an exact chemical structure, similar compounds, or by substructure. Filter by molecular weight, complete or incomplete chemical formula, claims and authority to refine searches. Find the exact location of searched chemicals of interest in the patent text and connect the name to the chemical structure. Detect and display all identified terms from a range of domains, including molecules, genes and proteins, polymers, antibodies and more. Export results to Excel using structure-centric or patent family-centric exports.
Search, review and analyse documents based on a variety of classification codes.
Spend less time reviewing complex patent documents with easy-to-understand Smart Summaries
A Minesoft family is similar to the EPO DOCDB definition of a simple family which is a collection of patent documents that are considered to cover a single invention with identical technical content. The parent applications that start the family tree will be the parents of all family members – with the exception that continuation-in-part applications always start a new simple family.
An Extended Family is a collection of patent documents that cover a technology. The technical content covered by the applications in one extended patent family is similar but not necessarily the same. Patent applications that are members of an extended patent family will all have at least one priority in common with at least one of the other members – either directly or indirectly.
It is the ideal platform to provide R&D and IP Legal professionals with the patent intelligence required to make strategic decisions. So easy to use, that it can be operated by anyone. Complex patent information can be presented in simple language, designed for users who have time constraints. Choose to organise results by application, publication, Minesoft family, or extended families.
Easily monitor trends, understand the competitive landscape, and transform big data into actionable knowledge.
Automate manual patent checks by setting up a Watch Patent alert to receive a notification each time there is a change in legal events for a patent. It is possible to select which legal events to monitor. Alternatively, set up a Query Alert to receive notifications when new patents match the search strategy. Query alerts are based on search queries that use the same search language as a regular Origin search.
Track progress and simplify communication between R&D and legal teams with our seamless internal collaboration system
Relevant records can be saved in a results folder for future use, to share, or for further analysis.
Private or shared folders can be created and records can easily be added in bulk from a search result set or individually added when viewing records. Records added to the folder are up-to-date, meaning if new information has been added to the record that has already been saved in a results folder, this information will automatically be updated and displayed within the record.
Manage and capture interesting patents using your own company-defined set of custom fields. For example, it can be useful to categorise patent records by technical area, product name, importance, etc. Comments can also be added to records to share patent findings within your organisation and encourage collaboration, streamlining the IP workflow process. Once records have been tagged with custom fields they can be searched and displayed in the results and record view for any user with the right permissions.
Custom fields include the following functionalities:
- Creating custom field schemes and assigning permission rights (admin only)
- Creating custom fields (admin only)
- Searching custom fields (query builder and command line)
- Viewing custom fields in the results and record view
