Patent Pulse watches new US patents for the assignees and technologies you care about, then sends you a plain-English brief — what they filed, what it claims, and whether it could box in your roadmap.
Built on USPTO PatentSearch public data. Roughly 340,000 US patents are granted every year.
Enterprise IP monitoring, minus the enterprise invoice.
Crayon and Klue cost five figures a year. The underlying patent data is free and public — what’s missing is something that reads it for you and tells you what’s relevant. That’s the whole gap we fill.

We scan every grant
Daily pulls from the USPTO PatentSearch API. AI scores each new patent for genuine overlap with your radar — not keyword noise.
Read the brief
A short digest decodes the patentese into plain English and flags anything that could block or overlap what you’re building.
Patentese in, plain English out.
Your radar in this example: “construction scheduling”, “Zero RFI”, and “glucose”.

High
Automated retrosynthesis via transformer neural networks
Assignee: Zero RFI Technologies
A direct competitor on your radar just secured a method patent on transformer-based synthesis-route prediction.
Why it matters to you. If your roadmap touches ML-driven route planning, review claims 1–4 for overlap before you ship.
Low
Graph-based dependency resolution for construction scheduling
Assignee: BuildLogic Systems Inc
A DAG engine that detects RFI bottlenecks and reorders critical-path tasks — squarely in your “construction scheduling” radar.
Why it matters to you. Informational; claims appear narrow to their specific reorder heuristic.
Sample alert. Companies, people, and figures are illustrative.
Priced for startups, not legal departments.
Built for founders, product teams, and IP-curious operators who can’t justify a $30k/yr competitive-intel contract.
Tell us your email and the competitors or technologies you most want to watch. We’ll have your radar live within a day.
