Page White Farrer Adopts Solve Intelligence for AI-Assisted Patent Drafting

Page White Farrer Adopts Solve Intelligence and Solve's AI Templates

Page White Farrer ("PWF"), a specialist intellectual property firm with a longstanding focus on technology-driven innovation, has selected Solve Intelligence to support patent application drafting following an extensive evaluation of available AI tools. The firm has initially deployed the platform within its technology-focused patent teams, supporting work across sectors such as AI, software, telecommunications, electronics, semiconductors and engineering. 

The firm's objective was not to automate legal judgement or replace attorney expertise, but to accelerate the preparation of high-quality first drafts of patent applications. By combining AI-assisted drafting with custom templates tailored to the firm's preferred drafting approaches, Solve Intelligence helps attorneys move from an initial claim set to a reviewable first draft more efficiently while maintaining consistency and technical accuracy. 

For this partnership, PWF's primary focus was on configuring the platform around the firm's own drafting conventions, client preferences and established best practices, ensuring that the technology supports the way its attorneys already work.

Templates at the Core

For a specialist IP practice advising clients across AI, software, semiconductors, electronics, telecommunications and other deep-technology sectors, consistency in drafting quality and style is essential. Many clients have established preferences regarding patent specifications, terminology and drafting structures, while different technology areas often require their own approaches and emphasis. 

PWF quickly identified templating as one of the most important requirements for successful AI adoption. Solve Intelligence's custom template functionality allows attorneys to incorporate client-specific requirements, preferred drafting approaches and firm-wide best practices directly into the drafting process. Attorneys can develop and refine templates tailored to different clients and technology areas, helping to generate first drafts that are more closely aligned with established drafting practices from the outset. 

The benefits extend beyond consistency alone. Templates make it easier for attorneys with different levels of AI experience to adopt the technology successfully. By providing structured workflows and familiar outputs, the platform allows teams to realise the benefits of AI-assisted drafting without requiring every practitioner to become an expert in prompting or workflow design. This has helped PWF roll out the use of AI across a broader group of attorneys while maintaining a consistent approach to quality. 

A Practitioner-Led Approach

Page White Farrer's philosophy is that AI should strengthen the role of the patent attorney rather than replace it. While Solve Intelligence can accelerate the preparation of a first draft application, responsibility for understanding the invention, developing the claim strategy, assessing patentability and producing the final work product remains firmly with the attorney. 

By reducing the time spent on repetitive drafting tasks, the platform allows attorneys to devote more attention to inventor discussions, technical analysis, strategic claim development and client collaboration. The result is not simply greater efficiency, but the opportunity to focus more time on the aspects of patent drafting that most benefit from technical and legal expertise.

Why Solve Intelligence

Solve Intelligence is an AI platform built specifically for patent professionals, with drafting tools designed to support attorneys while keeping them in control of substantive legal and technical decision-making. Its customisation capabilities allow firms to incorporate their own templates, workflows and drafting styles directly into the platform. 

For Page White Farrer, the combination of patent-specific functionality, template customisation and ease of adoption made Solve Intelligence a natural fit.

"The focus for us as a firm when we were evaluating different AI tools was on the drafting of patent applications. We were particularly impressed by Solve's templating capabilities, which allow us to move from an initial claim set to a reviewable first draft of a patent application much more efficiently while maintaining consistency and technical accuracy.

As we've continued to develop and refine our templates, we've built a library tailored to different clients and technology areas. The system is intuitive to customise and has made it easier to deploy AI-assisted drafting across attorneys with different levels of AI experience.

Most importantly, by reducing the time spent producing a first draft, Solve allows our attorneys to spend more time understanding the invention, refining the patent strategy and working closely with inventors and clients to produce the strongest possible application."

The Honest Risks of Using AI in Patent Prosecution

AI is changing how patent prosecution gets done, and the upside is real. So are the downsides: hallucinated citations, confidentiality exposure, export-control pitfalls, and prosecution-history estoppel. This is an honest account of the risks of AI patent software in prosecution, and what actually reduces each one.

Key takeaways

  • Anyone presenting AI-assisted content to the USPTO must reasonably review it; relying on the tool's accuracy alone is not enough.
  • Courts have already sanctioned attorneys for AI-hallucinated citations, and similar risk applies to office-action responses and PTAB briefs.
  • The USPTO warns that AI tools on foreign servers can raise export-control, foreign-filing-license, and national-security problems.
  • Grounded citations, exposed reasoning, zero data retention, and attorney oversight are what materially reduce AI risk in patent prosecution.

Maiwald Chooses Solve Intelligence for Selected AI-Supported IP Workflows

Solve Intelligence is proud to share that Maiwald, one of Germany’s largest and most progressive intellectual property firms, works with Solve Intelligence on selected AI-supported workflows in its patent and legal practice groups. Following an evaluation period during which selected functionalities were assessed for approved internal use cases, Maiwald and Solve have formed an enterprise partnership for 2026.

The rollout reflects the same careful approach Maiwald brings to its client work. Solve enables customers in Europe to process data on servers located within Europe and holds recognized information-security certifications. In addition, Solve offers contractual commitments designed to protect confidential professional information in line with applicable statutory confidentiality obligations and professional conduct requirements. Against that background, any use of AI-supported tools took place only within approved governance structures and under applicable professional, contractual, confidentiality and data-protection requirements.

That balance of innovation and professional judgment is characteristic of Maiwald. The firm has spent decades setting a standard for IP work in Europe: rigorous prosecution, a formidable contentious practice, and interdisciplinary teams of patent attorneys and attorneys-at-law working side by side. The firm approached AI the same way, methodically, with a clear sense of where it adds leverage and where an experienced attorney’s judgment remains irreplaceable. 

PTAB Case Studies of AI Disclosure Requirements: Part II

This article is the second of a series of Patent Trial & Appeal Board (PTAB) case studies (see Part I), which aims to inform applicants’ approach to satisfying the written description and enablement requirements for patenting artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning technologies.

How Much of Your Patent Practice Should You Codify?

Both in-house teams and outside counsel can let a purpose-built platform carry the shared foundation for their patent work. They can then focus their limited time on the standards and judgment that set their work apart. AI has made this division of labor more valuable by raising the payoff for turning a practice into templates, instructions, and review criteria that run at scale. Let’s call that codification. The platform can encode a great deal of best practice out of the box, and a team can add its own custom templates and instructions on top. The real question is how much to add and how much to leave to the platform. There is no fixed formula because the right balance changes as the team’s practice, the law, and the technology evolve.

Key takeaways

• AI has raised the payoff for codifying patent practice. Codification now guides AI-assisted drafting and review directly, not just junior training.

• A purpose-built patent platform can encode a large body of best practice out of the box, so a team can begin with that foundation rather than write its own.

• Solve Intelligence maintains its shared foundation across more than 700 IP teams, keeping it current far more efficiently than any single team could alone.

• The strategic choice is how much of your own practice to codify on top; scarce expert time should go to the standards and judgment that differentiate your work.

• A named professional still signs off on every filing, so accountability for the result never shifts to the AI.
