The Memory Problem

Patent prosecution and IP analysis involve long timelines where earlier findings directly affect later decisions. A prior art reference identified in a search three months ago should inform the claim amendment you're drafting today. But AI sessions don't carry that history forward. Every session, attorneys re-paste prosecution history, re-explain the claim landscape, and rebuild the prior art context that was already established.

What MemoryLake Does Differently

10M+ USPTO patents available without upload — MemoryLake includes the full USPTO patent dataset as a native built-in. Run prior art searches, compare claim language, and analyze prosecution history without manual document preparation. Query it directly from any AI session.

Prior art findings that accumulate, not reset — Fact Memory stores every prior art finding with source attribution and conflict detection. When a new reference contradicts a prior analysis, MemoryLake flags it. Your prior art record builds over time rather than starting over each session.

Full prosecution history in permanent memory — Conversation Memory stores every AI session involving claim drafting, office action responses, and filing strategy. Event Memory tracks prosecution milestones in order. Retrieve the complete history of any application across years of work.

How It Works

  1. Connect — Access 10M+ USPTO patents as a built-in dataset, and bring in client files, prosecution records, and internal analyses via REST API, Google Workspace, or Dropbox. MemoryLake's D1 Engine parses complex patent PDFs automatically.
  2. Structure — Prior art references, claim analyses, prosecution events, and filing facts are stored in the appropriate memory type with full versioning and provenance tracking.
  3. Reuse — Any AI model you use — Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini — draws from the same persistent IP memory. Use the best model for each task without rebuilding prior art context from scratch.

Built For

MemoryLake is built for patent attorneys and agents managing prosecution across multiple applications and multi-year timelines, IP counsel conducting freedom-to-operate analyses and prior art searches, and innovation teams responsible for building and maintaining a defensible patent portfolio. It is especially useful in practices where matters are handled by multiple attorneys or need to survive personnel transitions without losing institutional knowledge.

Frequently asked questions

Does MemoryLake cover international patent databases, not just USPTO?

The built-in dataset covers 10M+ USPTO patents. For international patent research — EPO, WIPO, JPO — you can connect external sources via REST API and store findings directly into MemoryLake's Fact Memory for persistent access and conflict detection.

How does version control work for claim language?

MemoryLake uses git-like versioning for all stored facts. Every version of a claim element, every amendment, and every office action response is tracked with a full history. You can retrieve any prior version and see exactly when and how it changed.

Can prior art research be shared across attorneys while protecting client confidentiality?

Yes. Role-based access control lets you define exactly who can access memory for a specific matter. You can share prior art research findings across a team while keeping client-specific facts restricted to authorized users. Full audit trails log every access event.
