Ambient Competitor Patent Intelligence

The competitor analysis is already done. And the reasoning is cited.

Connect your portfolio, select your competitors, and let Patos watch the board. Ethos — an ambient AI analyst — continuously maps global filings against your specific concerns. When a threat emerges, you don’t get a raw alert. You get an auditable finding with claim-level rationale, tailored exactly to your team’s cognitive model.

For enterprise IP teams. No public sign-up.

The Bottleneck

Raw alerts are cheap. Context is expensive.

Legacy databases don't lack data; they lack judgment. They bury your team in generic keyword matches, forcing you to either manually sift through the noise — or pay an outside IP partner $800 an hour to read the claims and tell you what actually matters.

The Alert Fatigue Tax

Hundreds of unread keyword alerts by Tuesday morning. To find the one competitor filing that actually threatens your roadmap, your team does the heavy analytical lifting — and that institutional knowledge evaporates the second the matter is closed.

The Context Extraction Matrix

Patos flips the model. As Ethos surfaces auditable findings, it interactively extracts context from your team’s reactions — cross-referencing competitor data against your portfolio and your specific concerns, building a proprietary matrix that gets smarter every time you use it.

The Operating System

How the intelligence compounds.

Patos isn't a search bar. It's a continuous Competitor Patent Intelligence engine. By combining ambient market monitoring with your team's expert intuition, the platform becomes a bespoke intelligence asset.

Step 01

Ambient monitoring

Patos watches the board. You don't have to run manual queries to know what your competitors are doing. Ethos continuously tracks filing velocity, CPC distribution shifts, and market movements, mapping them silently against your own portfolio.

Step 02

Signal surfacing

The anomaly becomes an artifact. When Ethos detects a filing that threatens your roadmap, it doesn't just send an email — it surfaces an auditable finding, citing the exact claim, CPC, and its rationale for why you should care.

Sudden spike in Class A61B

Competitor filings in this CPC subclass up 4.2× against trailing baseline. Two new assignees.

One click converts an alert into a dedicated AI research project.

Step 03

Context extraction

Your team brings the strategy. This is where the extraction matrix happens: your analysts review the finding, override relevance tiers, or add your company's unique legal lens. You aren't just categorizing a threat — you are training Ethos on how your team interprets claims.

Step 04

The matter card

The intelligence is captured. Every finding, correction, and context note is compiled into a living competitor card — a persistent matter file that remembers your posture. Tomorrow's intelligence is filtered through today's expert judgment.

Three vantage points

Reclaim your strategic advantage.

The same auditable finding powers three different disciplines. No more silos. No more amnesia.

IP Directors & Patent Counsel

The Exposure

Managing a multi-million-dollar portfolio half-blind, relying on reactive outside-counsel opinions that cost five figures each and are obsolete the moment they are filed.

The Payoff

Continuous portfolio defense. Ethos maps the entire board 24/7 — so when you walk into the boardroom to assert a position, you have a compounding, claim-level matter card to back it up.

M&A & Due Diligence Teams

The Exposure

Deal velocity stalls when you wait three weeks and pay five figures for an external FTO or collision memo.

The Payoff

A continuously current evidence base. Ethos maps the target's portfolio against yours at claim level, so your diligence starts from an auditable, up-to-date picture instead of a three-week-old snapshot.

Licensing & Litigation Teams

The Exposure

Building Evidence-of-Use charts means hundreds of expensive, manual legal hours mapping elements to claims.

The Payoff

Claim-level rationale, already cited. Ethos surfaces element-by-element reasoning with sources as competitors move — giving your EoU work an auditable starting trail instead of a blank page.

Time to value

Ambient intelligence flowing in under 14 days.

No six-month implementation. No IT data-migration project. Just connect your context and let Ethos do the reading.

Day 1

Onboard

Upload your product specs, patent portfolio, and specific competitor concerns.

Day 3

Map

Patos ingests the corpus and begins mapping the global board against your cognitive model.

Week 1

First findings

Ethos surfaces the first auditable coverage grids, citing specific claims and rationale for your review.

Week 2

Fully ambient

The system is fully ambient. Every correction compounds into your proprietary matter memory.

Your intelligence never trains our base models. Period.

When you pay outside counsel, your institutional knowledge walks out the door with them. Patos ensures every analysis and override trains a proprietary model that belongs exclusively to you.

Enterprise-grade infrastructure

Own your intelligence. Don't rent it.

01

Structural tenant isolation

Fully isolated data environments and dedicated database instances. Zero cross-tenant data pooling.

02

Zero-training policy

Your portfolio data and search queries are processed, not recycled. They never train the Patos base models.

03

Proprietary judgment capture

Every human override is securely logged to a tenant-specific model, compounding your team's unique legal lens.

04

Data sovereignty

Your data, your models, your jurisdiction. On-demand deletion. When you leave, it all leaves with you.

Stop funding the alert fatigue tax.

Equip your IP team with an ambient analyst that does the work, shows its reasoning, and builds a proprietary intelligence moat you actually own.
