Edge

What is Edge?

Edge is a patent assistant tool designed to automate and simplify the patent writing and management process. It cuts down on tasks that typically take hours, freeing patent attorneys and inventors to focus on critical thinking. The tool generates draft claim sets, creates embodiments, and writes boilerplate text, significantly reducing time spent on detailed writing.

Edge also simplifies handling patent figures: you can edit them, add labels, and organize them in one place, reducing the need to rely on draftspeople for complex drawing tasks. It helps catch common reference errors during patent preparation and assists inventors in formulating their inventive concept with built-in brainstorming features.
