Turn the prior art you have selected into a structured first draft for attorney review in under 5 minutes. Every draft is configured for the drafting conventions of the target jurisdiction, requires attorney review before it can be exported or filed, and is captured in a complete audit trail.
Select prior art references, describe your invention, and generate a full patent specification.
Configurable drafting guidance and templates for the production set (US, EP, IN, and PCT/WO) are applied to every generation.
Every AI-generated draft includes a disclaimer and requires human sign-off before filing.
Generate V1, review, add instructions, regenerate V2. Each version is kept as a separate, non-editable record.
US, EP, IN, and PCT (WO) are the production set today. JP and CN are planned.

Every regulated workflow is built around traceability, approval control, and immutable records. Capture reasons for change, preserve audit history, require review checkpoints, and keep every edit tied to a user, timestamp, and record.
Critical field edits require a documented reason before saving. No silent changes.
Every change logged: who, what, when, and the before/after diff.
Re-authentication prompt before approval actions and high-risk operations.
Audit history is append-only. The application exposes no edit or delete path, so records stay read-only.
Admin, Attorney, Paralegal, Viewer: granular permissions enforced server-side.
Version-controlled uploads with presigned downloads and full delete audit trail.

Design Your Invention (DYI) is an intellectual property management software (IPMS) platform for pharma companies and IP boutique law firms. It brings multi-jurisdiction patent docketing, prior art search across 100+ patent authorities via the EPO, and AI-assisted patent drafting for US, EP, IN, and PCT (WO) into one connected, audit-trailed workspace. The architecture follows FDA 21 CFR Part 11 patterns, with tenant-scoped data isolation so each organization keeps its portfolio separate.
The full IP management platform is in private beta and under active development, so features can change during the beta. The public patent search tool is live and free to use today. If you want early access to the platform, book a demo or use the contact form and we will talk through your workflow and the current beta scope.
DYI is built for pharma companies and IP boutique law firms that manage patent portfolios across multiple jurisdictions. Typical users include IP attorneys, patent paralegals, IP directors, and legal operations teams who need patent docketing, prior art search, fee and deadline tracking, and a defensible audit trail in one place, instead of spreadsheets and email.
IP management software is a specialized platform that helps law firms, corporations, and patent teams manage their intellectual property portfolios, including patent applications, PCT filings, office actions, deadlines, fees, and compliance requirements. It replaces spreadsheets and email-based tracking with a structured, searchable, and auditable system.
Every edit to a critical field requires a documented reason-for-change. The audit trail logs who made each change, what changed, and when, and is append-only: the application exposes no edit or delete path on audit history. Electronic approvals require re-authentication, and role-based access control limits who can perform sensitive actions. These are product capabilities, not a compliance certification. Validation and Part 11 compliance depend on each customer intended use, configuration, procedures, training, and quality system.
Yes. The platform links PRV (provisional), PCT (international), and NPE (national phase entry) cases to their parent patent families. You can see the entire filing hierarchy in a visual family tree, track deadlines across all filing types, and manage office actions and fees from a single dashboard.
Yes. Multi-jurisdiction portfolios are the core use case. Docketing covers US, PCT, EP, JP, CN, and IN, with PRV, PCT, and NPE cases linked to their parent application families so the full filing hierarchy is visible in one place. Deadlines, fees, and office actions are tracked across every jurisdiction in your portfolio, and fee analytics roll up spend with date-accurate multi-currency conversion into one reporting currency.
Supported statutory and procedural deadlines are derived from your case data rather than entered by hand, so they do not depend on someone remembering to add them to a calendar. Every deadline gets a 0 to 100 risk score with green, amber, and red levels, and automated email digests push what is due to the responsible owner before the date. A weekly stale-alert report also surfaces cases that are quietly going wrong without generating a hard deadline. Calculated dates are workflow aids: coverage depends on the case data you record, and a qualified patent professional remains responsible for verifying every date.
