Building AI Tools That Patent Attorneys Trust
After countless conversations with patent attorneys across 5 continents, it’s clear that patent practitioners want AI tools that work like a trusted colleague who is always available, incredibly thorough, and has a genuine understanding of patent law.
At Solve Intelligence, we know what patent attorneys are dealing with because we've been there. Our team includes patent attorneys from firms like Dentons, Haley Guiliano, Quarles & Brady, and Reddie & Grose. We left private practice not to replace patent attorneys, but to build solutions to the problems we personally faced.
In this post, we share the experiences of Solve Intelligence customers who explain how our AI patent platform helps them work faster, with greater accuracy, and more time for strategic client work. Their stories highlight the real world benefits patent attorneys are seeing in practice.

3x Faster Patent Drafting Without Sacrificing Quality
Joel Briscoe, Intellectual Property Advisor at Panoramix (previously in-house at British American Tobacco) experienced the difference firsthand: "Solve Intelligence has led to a 3x increase in speed with my patent application drafting and reviewing. Because of this, I'm now able to spend more time taking on additional client work while maintaining amazing quality."
This efficiency gain from using AI patent drafting software addresses a fundamental challenge in patent practice. As Sam Jinks, Patent Attorney and Counsel at Haley Guiliano explains: "Drafting a full and robust description consumes a large portion of the overall time allotted to complete a draft. Solve Intelligence’s Patent Copilot provides an intuitive system for time-efficient preparation of detailed descriptions."
Every patent attorney knows this reality. Attorneys are trained to identify inventive concepts, craft strategically relevant claims, and support clients in building robust IP portfolios. Yet they often spend hours on detailed descriptions, checking for inconsistencies, ensuring support based on updated claims, and incorporating reference numerals, leaving less time for strategic and creative work.
AI Built for Real Patent Workflows
The goal is to allow practitioners to incorporate AI wherever and however they’d like. It's about understanding how patent preparation and prosecution actually works and maximizing value from every hour.
Sam highlights that Solve Intelligence ”allows for a larger balance of the time available to be used on the things that underpin 'why' a patent application has been filed – preparing robust claims and figures."
Rick Timmer, Senior Patent Agent at Brown Rudnick emphasized the importance of specialization to develop a solution for every subject matter: "We were particularly focused on application to patent work in the life sciences and chemical arts, and Solve Intelligence was one of the most robust tools we examined. Moreover, the product had the right balance in terms of prompt input and automation features – the overall user experience and interface was incredibly accessible."
Rick highlighted that after testing multiple similar tools, "Solve Intelligence was head and shoulders above all others. Since it is a cloud-based, browser-based product, implementation was a breeze and if one is familiar with the usual office tools, working with sequences, and chemical drawing software, it will be easy to implement and use."
Market Leading Customer Support from People Who Understand Patent Practice
Unlike typical software support in this field, when attorneys message Solve Intelligence about workflow issues, we know exactly what they're dealing with. Our Legal & Product Engineering team comes from patent practice, which shapes everything from how we respond to questions to how we prioritize features.
"The Solve Intelligence team is ready to answer queries and provide tips and support to get the best out of the tool," Sam notes.
Joel's experience goes deeper: "The team at Solve Intelligence are incredibly responsive and have a great onboarding programme with the developers themselves."
Enterprise Reliability Delivered with Rapid Iteration Based on Practitioner Feedback
At Solve Intelligence, we’ve built a product development process that combines the rigour enterprises expect with the agility patent practitioners need. Every update goes through structured quality checks and security reviews, yet we still release improvements faster than any other AI provider in the field.
Joel shared feedback that continues to motivate our team: "They've already taken feedback from me personally, implementing suggestions at lightning speed for me and their other users. It really does feel like the team is here to provide me with the best service they possibly can."
This isn't ad-hoc iteration. It’s a deliberate cycle of practitioner feedback, prioritisation, and disciplined delivery. Enhancements are added to our product roadmap, validated against enterprise use cases, and released in a way that balances responsiveness with reliability and inline with market leading security standards.
By combining enterprise grade stability with a feedback loop measured in weeks, not quarters, we ensure patent attorneys always have access to the most advanced and dependable AI drafting platform on the market.
Sam sees this commitment in action: "The constant functionality updates that the Solve Intelligence team provide are improving both the quality of output and time saved with each update."
Building in Partnership
There's something deeply satisfying about building tools that solve problems you've personally faced. The only way to get it right is to listen to IP teams using the product every day, then act on what they tell you.
Our Partnerships team spends their days on calls with patent attorneys and agents across teams of all sizes. We listen to how they mine inventions, structure disclosures, draft claims, prepare figures and descriptions, review applications, and prosecute them. These conversations directly shape what and how we build.
Rick summarized the key benefits of Solve Intelligence: "Customer service and willingness to listen to feedback; commitment to continued improvement, including responsiveness to user inputs; and overall robustness of the product and user interface."
We're building the future of patent practice at Solve Intelligence in partnership with our customers, and attorneys like Joel, Rick, and Sam who trust us to help them focus on strategy over repetition and serve their clients with greater creativity.
