  1. The "Low-Efficiency Trap": The Chronic Pain of IP Professionals

Are you still drowning in a sea of printed documents, armed with highlighters, trying to find the subtle differences between competing patents and your own? While you’re manually cross-referencing claims, your competitors are already refining their next IP strategy.

  • Missing critical results because of different phrasing despite matching keywords.

  • Wasting days comparing claims for just 10 similar patents.

  • "Dead data" syndrome: Hundreds of secured patents sitting in folders, impossible to search when you actually need them.

"If you spend your entire day just 'reading' patent specifications, when will you find the time to build your offensive and defensive strategies?"

Stop highlighting. Start Strategizing. Here is how Wissly AI transforms your patent analysis routine.

  1. How Wissly Reinvents Your Patent Analysis

2-1. Search by "Technical Context," Not Just Filenames

"Find key claims for low-power circuit design among these patents."

Wissly understands the actual content of the specification, not just titles. Even if claims are written with different terminology or synonyms, Wissly analyzes the context to aggregate them. It navigates you to the most relevant sections within 10 seconds, highlighting the exact technical context you need.

2-2. Instant "A vs. B" Comparison Tables

"Show me the differences in claim scope between Patent A and our Patent B in a table."

Our RAG(Retrieval-Augmented Generation)-based engine automatically matches two specifications and identifies where they align or diverge at the claim level. It generates a structured table showing added, deleted, or modified technical elements. All you have to do is verify the evidence paragraphs flagged by the AI.

2-3. Securely Leverage External Intel

"What are the latest citation trends or competitor movements for this patent?"

Wissly doesn't just search internal documents; it performs hybrid searches across the web (public patent DBs, news, etc.) to provide summaries and reference links. Your internal data remains strictly confidential, while RAG-based technology seamlessly integrates external facts into your internal analysis.

Risk of "Hallucination" (inventing tech terms).

Generates answers based solely on actual source text.

Comparative Analysis

Provides general summaries.

Supports precise claim-level cross-referencing & tables.

  1. FAQ: What IP Experts Ask Most

4-Q1. Patent terminology is highly complex. Can AI truly understand it?

A1: It’s not simple keyword matching. Wissly understands the semantic relationships between sentences. It groups similar technologies even if phrasing differs and pinpoints the technical core of your search.

4-Q2. Can it analyze old scanned PDFs or diagrams?

A2: Yes. Legacy PDFs that weren't searchable become "living data" through our high-performance OCR engine. You can extract claims and figure numbers from images and compare them just like modern electronic specs.

4-Q3. Isn't there a risk if the AI makes a mistake?

A3: Wissly provides highlighted source links for every answer. The AI doesn't just "judge"—it "finds evidence at lightning speed" for the human expert to verify. You, the professional, remain in full control.

  1. Leave Research to AI; Keep the Strategy for Yourself

An IP professional’s value isn't measured by how many pages they’ve read, but by the barriers they build to protect innovation.
