Public patent intelligence for product, research, and IP teams

Map global inventions.Search patents through problems, technologies, and markets.

InvenMap helps teams search public patents, monitor invention activity, and map technical solutions to the problems they matter for.

Search by problem

Search public patents with more structure than a document list.

Problem-led queries, route clustering, and readable invention context make the first search useful before a user reads a single claim.

InvenMap translates engineering intent into patent structure

Traditional tools

Translate your problem into patent terminology first.

Sort through long lists with little conceptual structure.

Read dense documents before you know the strategic routes.

InvenMap

Describe the challenge directly in plain engineering language.

See clustered solution routes before diving into documents.

Read patent matches through summaries, context, and relevance rationale.

Problem

Patent information is public. Patent understanding is still hard.

The gap is not access to documents. It is access to structure, context, and faster reasoning across invention pathways.

Public patent data is still hard to use.

InvenMap restructures the workflow around the problem, the technical route, and the reason each result matters.

Keyword search misses conceptual relevance.

Natural-language input lets teams start from the real technical question instead of forcing vocabulary translation first.

Technology routes are buried across filings.

Route clustering surfaces strategy families before a user has to read a stack of disconnected patent documents.

Teams waste time on low-signal result pages.

Readable summaries, match reasons, and domain framing shorten the path from search to a decision-ready shortlist.

How it works

Three steps from technical question to invention intelligence.

The first product loop is intentionally simple: describe the problem, review the mapped routes, and inspect patents with enough context to act.

Step 1

Describe the challenge

Use natural language such as 'How can we reduce wind turbine noise?' instead of constructing patent-specific keyword strings.

Step 2

Review clustered approaches

InvenMap interprets the problem and groups results into technical strategies such as coatings, sensing, damping, or cooling.

Step 3

Inspect invention context

Each result includes a structured summary, relevance explanation, and linked routes for deeper patent review.

Search journeys

Representative searches make the product concrete fast.

Example prompts show how InvenMap moves from a problem statement to routes, patents, and evidence.

How do we prevent battery fires?

Thermal shutdown separatorsBattery monitoring systemsFire-resistant electrolytes

Battery separator with thermal shutdown microstructure

Uses a separator microstructure that shuts down ion transport as temperature approaches runaway conditions.

How can we reduce vibration in electric motors?

Rotor balancingActive control systemsDamping mounts

Dynamic balancing architecture for high-speed electric motor rotors

Introduces adjustable balancing features calibrated during high-speed validation.

How do we remove microplastics from wastewater?

Membrane filtrationElectrochemical treatmentCoagulation and flocculation

Membrane process for recovery of microplastic particles from wastewater

Uses staged membrane filtration tuned to particle size and fouling behavior.

Innovation map preview

The product direction is an intelligence map, not another patent results page.

InvenMap is built to evolve from clustered results into interactive maps of problems, solution strategies, patents, assignees, and market signals.

FAQ

Short answers to the questions serious users ask first.

How is InvenMap different from Google Patents or Espacenet?

InvenMap starts from a technical problem, ranks relevant inventions, groups them into approach-level routes, and explains why each result matters instead of returning only a flat keyword-first document list.

Which patent datasets are included?

InvenMap combines indexed patent records with live USPTO and EPO sources so users can search public patent data with more structure and context.

Does InvenMap provide legal advice?

No. InvenMap is a research and intelligence tool. Patent status, validity, and freedom-to-operate conclusions still need independent legal verification.

Can I save searches and patents?

Yes. Free access supports exploration, while paid tiers add persistent saved research across patents, searches, and mapped solution routes.

Final CTA

Turn global patent data into invention intelligence.

Search public patents, map technical routes, and track invention activity the way modern teams actually work: through problems, technologies, and context.
