Assignee

Patent search tool that starts with ownership

Most patent search tools help you find patents by topic. Assignee is a patent search tool for the next question: who owns the patents you found, how they got there and what is recorded against them.

Assignee works next to the search tool you already use. Paste the numbers from your results and get ownership for each of them.

What the search covers

  • Search by patent number, publication number or application number
  • Search by owner name across former names and merged entities
  • Chain of title with every recorded document
  • Security interests and releases
  • Title risk flags
  • Bulk lookups for lists of patents on the Firm plan, by export or the USPTO assignment API

Who uses a patent search tool for ownership

  • Attorneys preparing an FTO analysis who need to know who holds the blocking patents
  • Licensing managers checking the counterparty before a negotiation
  • Analysts building a list of owners for a patent landscape analysis
  • Brokers confirming that a seller can actually sell

Where the data comes from

Every result comes from public USPTO assignment records. Assignee reads them, links them and shows the source document for each step, so you can cite it in a memo or an opinion. Nothing in a report is estimated or invented.
