Techson will deploy its AI-based Limestone Patent Research APIs and its market-leading, US-based research team to machine-generate and then human-curate patentability search reports on Draft Builders’ patent production platform.

MARINA DEL REY, CALIFORNIA and AUSTIN, TEXAS

Draft Builders and Techson have teamed to provide accelerated patentability search reports on Draft Builders’ technology-enabled patent services platform. Techson is integrating its Limestone Patent Research APIs and providing its team of world class, US-based patent researchers to deliver first look novelty search results to Draft Builders’ customers for a fixed fee and on an accelerated timeline.

“Since its founding, Draft Builders’ mantra has been to use only the best, all-US-based talent amplified by the best available technology to provide superior work product at a fraction of the cost of traditional offerings. Techson is perfectly aligned in that thinking. In today’s patent market, thoughtful combination of advanced technology and human expertise is essential in patent prosecution workflows,”  says Ian Schick, Founder & CEO of Draft Builders. “While Draft Builders has been busy building out this combination to initially address patent application drafting services, Techson, with its Limestone research platform and incredible team, has been leading the charge in innovative, AI-enabled patent research services.”

Customers who require patent application preparation also require patentability research---two services that require very different technology and expertise. This partnership has facilitated the consolidation of patent research services into Draft Builders’ singularized, easy-to-use workflow. This will save its customers time and money with a streamlined ordering and delivery approach. With more services on the way, Draft Builders is shaping up to be the market’s first AI+human-enabled one-stop-shop for bolt-on patent production.

“We are delighted to partner with Ian and his team in integrating our Limestone-enabled expert research services,” comments Luke Barbin, Founder & CEO of Techson. “This partnership is quite fortuitous because the information that Draft Builders’ customers provide and the work product that Draft Builders’ experts and technology create, are exactly what Limestone needs to accelerate our teams in conducting patentability research.  The result will be faster, high quality results at very competitive prices, and customers will need to do nothing more than tick a box.”

With this partnership Draft Builders will offer its customers two research packages:

1)    For patentability searches bundled with new applications on the platform - $699; 2-day turnaround.  Techson will use Draft Builders’ preliminary application drafts as the basis to conduct the search.

2)    For à la carte novelty searches - $749; 5-day turnaround. Techson will use Draft Builders’ customers’ original disclosure as the basis to conduct the search.

Customers will receive a patentability search report of top results and a ready-to-file IDS Form 8a populated with the search results.
