How AI is Transforming Cross-Jurisdictional Patent Drafting

Patent law might be global in scope, but in practice it’s local - and that creates real complexity for patent attorneys navigating different jurisdictions.

How AI is Transforming Cross-Jurisdictional Patent Drafting

In a new guest article on IP Service World, Solve Intelligence’s Harry Bedford (UK & European Patent Attorney and Founding Member of the Legal & Product Team) explores how AI can help patent practitioners move from reactive adaptation to proactive, globally consistent drafting strategies.

The post outlines how tools like Solve Intelligence’s Patent Copilot embed jurisdiction specific requirements directly into the patent drafting process. From managing the differences between the EPO and US to creating custom templates that blend requirements across regions, AI is helping attorneys reduce rework, increase consistency, and accelerate time to filing.

Harry discusses key challenges such as:

  • Adapting U.S. and European claim structures
  • Avoiding intermediate generalisations and optional language pitfalls
  • Managing differing standards of inventive step and obviousness
  • Standardising quality across jurisdictions through AI templates and intelligent rewriting

These innovations are already enabling patent attorneys to produce or amend patent applications faster and with greater accuracy, but without sacrificing quality.

How to Draft Patent Figures with Solve Intelligence

Solve’s Figure Builder is the integrated environment within the Solve platform where you can generate, edit, label and refine figures. It brings figures into the drafting process, alongside claim and specification drafting so consistency, and compliance with 37 CFR §1.84, is maintained across your application from the very first sketch to the version you file.

Key Takeaways:

  • Create, edit and finalize figures for your patent filings, both manually and with AI assistance.
  • Bring figure management into the heart of the drafting process to ensure you have the figures you need, when you need them.
  • Propagate changes in terminology and reference numerals across your whole application with ease.
  • Convert disclosure documents or claims into labelled line drawings in a single session, and then use them as the basis for your detailed description.

Solve Intelligence and HGF Partner to Deliver Custom AI Patent Drafting Workflows

Solve Intelligence is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with HGF, one of Europe’s leading intellectual property firms. The collaboration is focused on a clear objective: customising AI-driven drafting workflows to meet the specific needs of HGF and some of its clients.

Rather than adopting a one-size-fits-all approach, HGF is working closely with Solve Intelligence to shape how the drafting platform behaves across different technologies, client preferences, and drafting styles. The built-in, customisable features available in Solve’s platform are what makes this possible.

"We evaluated the field carefully before committing. Solve Intelligence delivered the drafting quality our attorneys demand and integrated seamlessly into how they already work. We are investing in the foundation for HGF's future practice."

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.
