PatentPlex from Patent Bots is your one-stop shop for information about U.S. and EU patents. The solution includes patent family trees, patent timelines, our patent analyzer, IFW access, and more.
In this product highlight, we’re taking a closer look at the Claim Diff tool in PatentPlex. This is an easy and automated way to see the difference in any set of claims.
Simply choose the two versions of the claims you’d like to compare, and the tool will display the differences.
Claim Diff is a great time saver for just about anyone working with patents and claim strategy. Here are a few examples:
- Litigators working to invalidate a patent can see how claims changed between filing and grant.
- Litigators can see how the claims changed with each office action response to formulate prosecution disclaimer arguments.
- Prosecutors can review how claims have changed during prosecution to revise their strategy with the patent examiner.
- Prosecutors can make better decisions when drafting claims for a child application by comparing the issued patent claims of other family members.
