What FICPI's ABC Meeting 2026 Revealed About AI-Ready Patent Practice

Solve Intelligence participated as a sponsor of FICPI’s ABC Meeting 2026 in Nashville, with CEO and Co-founder Chris Parsonson, demonstrating the practical application of a purpose-built patent AI platform. Patent attorneys and litigators convened for a key session addressing a central question: what is required for AI to be ready for patent practice? 

Key Takeaways:

  • Solve Intelligence supports the full patent lifecycle across 700+ IP firms, from invention disclosure through litigation.
  • One firm that adopted Solve Intelligence mid-fiscal year exceeded its billing targets by $1 million by reallocating AI-saved time to higher-value work.
  • In-house teams now require outside counsel to use AI tools, making AI fluency a firm selection criterion rather than a differentiator.
  • Attorneys report that ROI is not simply about increasing speed, but about reallocating the time saved to higher-value strategies, cross-sell analysis, and client insights.

How Solve Intelligence Expands the Offerings of Small Patent Firms

Solve Intelligence cuts the time attorneys spend on patent work by half. This lets a solo practitioner or small patent firm widen their offering without widening headcount. Work that a small practice once had to outsource can now be brought in-house, including creating patent drawings and prior art searching. The results are faster turnaround and higher margins for small firms. These time savings also free up capacity to offer ancillary services like landscaping, freedom-to-operate analysis, and infringement detection, work that was historically hard to do for small firms because of the manual effort involved.

Key Takeaways:

  • AI lets small firms bring outsourced work back in-house, including patent drawings and prior art search, improving margins and shortening turnaround.
  • AI makes patent attorneys more productive, freeing capacity for landscaping, FTO, and infringement detection work.
  • Patent work is structurally complex, so purpose-built patent AI, not a general chatbot, is what delivers reliable output.
