Ask NLPatent
Beyond Relevance Analysis, which shows feature-level similarities and differences between patents, NLPatent now offers a conversational way to explore a single patent in more detail: AskNLPatent.
This feature allows you to ask direct, natural-language questions about the contents of a specific patent—making it easier to extract meaningful insights quickly.
How to Access Ask NLPatent
Ask NLPatent can be found by clicking into a patent and then going to the tab "Ask NLPatent".
What You Can Ask
AskNLPatent is designed to help you interact with the full English text of a patent. In the text box, you can ask specific questions such as:
- "What does this patent say about [XYZ concept]?"
- "Can you summarize this patent in 3 sentences?"
- "What is the main inventive concept?"
- "What are the technical problems this invention aims to solve"
Limitations
- AskNLPatent analyzes only the English text of the specification. It cannot interpret figures, claims in other languages, or bibliographic data.
- It does not compare patents directly—only one document is analyzed at a time. However, you can manually paste in content from other patents for contextual comparisons.
- This feature is intended to support analysis, not to replace professional legal advice
