Prior Art Search (Patent Search)

PATENT PRIOR ART SEARCH

What is Prior Art?

Prior art refers to scientific and technical information that exists in public prior to the effective date of a patent application.
Includes any public documents, such as: patents, technical publications, conference papers, marketing brochures, products, devices, equipment, processes and materials.

Main Purposes of Prior Art Search

To assess novelty and patentability
To market for commercialization
To update new technological trends
To monitor competitor’s research activities
To prevent infringement actions (validity, ownership etc.)
To find legal status of patent applications

To generate ideas for R&D
To avoid duplicate of research activities
To reduce significantly R&D investment
To develop new technical solutions to problems
To evaluate specific technology
To plan new products
To identify state-of-art of technology

Can I do the search myself?

Yes, and many inventors have become quite skilled at doing their own patent searching. We recommend that inventors use the Google Patents, FreePatentsOnline.com, EPO, WIPO or US Patent Office website to conduct a patentable search.

If you do conduct your own searches, bear in mind that the analysis of search results can be challenging. It can sometimes be difficult to identify patentable aspects of an invention in light of similar prior art documents. In other words, a pessimistic inventor will frequently find a similar patent and despair that there is nothing patentable in their idea when in reality valuable patents can still be obtained.

You can also request that a search be done for you directly by the Strategic Inventor® team.
