Abstract: The present invention is a chain of custody (CoC) solution for public patent data records using blockchain to store, secure, and trace patent data. The CoC solution enables the primary data to remain on a Hyperledger with selective, high-value information migrated and maintained on the public blockchain, enabling that patent data to be encrypted, with decryption available only to the parties holding the encryption keys. The present invention also implements an integration infrastructure to create a Global Patent Registry (GPR) with the blockchain to support a consortium of Patent Owners, National Patent Offices, and Verifiers. GPR allows for the current process of granting, publishing, owning, transferring, and pledging patents onto the blockchain of the present invention, using smart contracts to manage these processes.

Abstract: A system and method for a patent search and analytics software tool that finds prior art for each claim limitation/element by breaking up claims into individual claim limitations. Once the claims are separated, the system finds the best prior art for each of the individual separate, different claim limitations/elements. Additionally, the software finds the best prior art for entire claims, including non-patent literature (NPL) searching. The system takes into account the limitations of the claim under consideration (query claim of query patent), the text of the art, the link structure of the citation network, and the patent classification and then constructs a network that consists of two types of nodes: (i) the art (patents and non-patent literature) and the (ii) classes of the patent classification. Each art node is linked to all the art nodes that it cites and is linked to all the classification nodes that it belongs to.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method by which a secure ledger network is deployed to provide assurance related to title of IP assets. Specifically, the invention seeks to improve the risk associated with IP based transactions and reduce the time related to researching color of title related to the same.

Abstract: The invention relates to maturable non-fungible tokens and interoperable IP tokens transacted on an information, network, financing, commercialization and monetization platform that leverages the efficiency of artificial intelligence and decentralization to increase global innovation by individual, small and medium sized innovators and encourages global adoption by providing access to information, analytics, capital, resources, a trusted network and global partners. The invention relates to a method to establish a maturable non-fungible token recorded on a blockchain and referencing an extendable chain of custody, and to allocate intellectual property (“IP”) rights reliably, clearly, and in an interoperable manner to any non-fungible token recorded on a blockchain, independent of its origin of creation. Currently available NFTs are facing a range of technical and environmental challenges that need to be resolved in order to increase their tradability, enterprise adoption, future-proofness, and the legal certainty for parties transacting (with) NFTs.

Abstract: The invention is a patent risk management system, to control patent prosecution costs. There will be different kinds of patent insurance: 1. Patent application insurance and 2. Patent Issuance Insurance. The amount of the fee paid by Applicant is not fixed. This amount is flexible, based on how much insurance protection the Applicant wants. Also, if important parts of the invention are in the claims (and this claim language remains in the issued patent), then the Applicant can pay a reduced risk management insurance
