USPTO-ready provisional applications

Describe your invention. Get a patent application you can actually file.

PatentGenie searches USPTO records for prior art, drafts the specification and claims, renders the figures, and returns a ZIP you can upload to Patent Center — or hand to your attorney.

Start draftingSee how it works

A drafting tool, not a law firm. Professional review before filing is recommended — and built in, if you want it.

CLAIMSDraft · claims 1–2 of 12
1.

A system for monitoring a physical process, comprising:

a sensor array configured to produce a time-series signal;

a classifier trained to distinguish an event signature from ambient variation; and

an alarm module configured to emit a ranked alert when the event signature is corroborated within a bounded interval.

2.

The system of claim 1, wherein the corroboration comprises an independent pressure measurement.

What PatentGenie does

One workspace for the whole life of an idea

Find out what is patentable, draft the application, review a draft against the standard criteria, then watch the market for products that practise your claims.

  1. 01Explore

    Patent studies · Find inventions

    Analyse an idea, with or without documents, and learn what it can protect.

  2. 02Draft

    Create new patents

    Seven stages from description to a filing-ready package.

  3. 03Review

    Patent studies · Review a drafted patent

    Score a disclosure and figures against the standard criteria.

  4. 04Watch

    Infringement Watch

    Find products that may practise an issued patent’s claims.

Module01

Create new patents

Describe your invention in your own words. Seven stages run in dependency order and return one ZIP you can upload to Patent Center or hand to your attorney.

  • Provisional or non-provisional, chosen at intake
  • Progress is live; a failed stage resumes where it stopped
  • Eight filing-ready files, fee estimate included
See the seven stages

Module02

Patent studies

Before you spend on drafting, find out what your idea and materials can protect — or check that a draft is ready to file. Type or speak the idea; documents are optional.

  1. Find inventions

    Analyse an idea, with or without documents. The analysis searches prior art and returns every distinct invention worth considering, with evidence and a claim angle.

  2. Review a drafted patent

    Score an existing disclosure and figures against the standard criteria, research prior art, and get finalised documents.

Start a study

Module03

Infringement Watch

Start from an issued patent. The watch searches public sources for products that may practise its claims, builds a claim chart against archived evidence, and drafts a measured licensing letter — every row reviewed by a person before it is marked ready for attorney review.

  • Product candidates found in public sources, with archived evidence
  • Claim chart: every limitation against cited excerpts, reviewed by you
  • Versioned licensing letter and a review packet for counsel
Watch an issued patent

Included with every draft and study

A companion briefing you can listen to or present

When a run completes, PatentGenie also records a two-voice audio walkthrough and builds a slide deck with speaker notes — grounded in the finished documents.

What runs when you draft

Seven stages, in dependency order

Progress is live, a failed stage resumes where it stopped, and your draft continues even if your connection drops.

  1. Step 01: Prior-art research

    Searches USPTO records and the technical literature, then scores novelty and non-obviousness against what it finds.

  2. Step 02: Specification drafting

    Writes the field, background, summary and detailed description in USPTO format.

  3. Step 03: Claim drafting

    Drafts independent claims and the dependent claims that fence in your invention.

  4. Step 04: Figure design

    Decides which figures the application needs and specifies each one.

  5. Step 05: Figure rendering

    Renders each figure as a patent-style line drawing.

  6. Step 06: Drawing descriptions

    Writes the Brief Description of the Drawings and the per-figure detail the specification requires.

  7. Step 07: Package assembly

    Builds every document deterministically — no model touches the fee arithmetic or form layout — and zips the filing package.

What you receive

One ZIP, eight files, ready for Patent Center

Every document is built deterministically from your run — the fee arithmetic and form layout never touch a model.

Then file it

Three ways to take it from draft to filed

The last step is always yours — the USPTO has no public filing API — but you never do it alone.

File it yourself

The filing guide walks you through Patent Center step by step — from creating a USPTO.gov account to saving your filing receipt — and the in-app checklist keeps your place.

Hand it to an attorney

Share the package through a secure link that expires after seven days. Your attorney sees the documents and nothing else — no account needed, no access to your workspace.

Review before you file

Already have a draft? Upload it and PatentGenie verifies the claims, figures and formalities against the same seven-stage standard before you submit.

What it does not do

Honest about the limits

For a legal instrument, the limits are a trust asset. Every one is stated on the site, in the package and in the app.

It does not file on your behalf.

The USPTO has no public filing API, so the last step is yours — we give you a checklist and the exact values to enter.

It is not a law firm.

No legal advice is given and no attorney–client relationship is formed. Have a registered attorney or agent review the draft before filing.

It does not certify your entity size.

The questionnaire suggests micro, small or large; you certify it, because a false certification has legal consequences.

It does not guarantee a patent.

Novelty and non-obviousness are decided by a USPTO examiner, not by this tool. The research stage gives you an honest read first.
