The Problem

Early patent research is difficult to review: invention features, search queries, source documents, uncertain observations, and open legal questions are often scattered across browser tabs and notes.

What PatentNexus Does

PatentNexus is an AI patent research assistant and guided evidence workspace. It helps users Frame an invention, Search patent and non-patent sources, Verify cited evidence, and Package the record for human review. It does not provide legal advice, determine patentability, or replace qualified counsel.

Built By

Previously, he worked on submarine simulation at NAVSEA, drone data engineering at PECO, and R&D at CertainTeed.
