Patently is a web platform for patent professionals, with tools and AI assistance spanning search, drafting, prosecution, oppositions, licensing, and litigation. Patently Search ranks patents by relevance and includes semantic search that passes results into other patent workflows without exports. Patently Create uses the Onardo assistant to draft claims, figures, and descriptions from invention disclosures. Patently Mine maps claims against standards and technical documents and can produce downloadable reports. Patently Rate supports shared ratings and configurable projects for freedom-to-operate, landscape, novelty, invalidity, and competitor work. Patently License provides standard-essential patent analytics across 4G, 5G, Wi-Fi, and beyond. Projects can have custom workflows, Word and Excel exports, and permissions with ethical walls and confidentiality barriers. The Free plan is 0.00 USD per free for one user and individual use, with filtered asset search, Onardo chat, patent-family browsing, and asset-link sharing. Law Firm+ and Business+ use custom pricing; Enterprise pricing is according to requirements.
