About this skill

The uspto-database skill enables AI agents to query and retrieve data from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) public databases. It provides direct access to patent applications, grants, trademarks, and associated metadata without requiring manual API key configuration.

When to use it

  • Automate research for intellectual property due diligence during mergers or acquisitions.
  • Identify prior art references to assess the novelty of a new invention before filing.
  • Monitor trademark availability for brand names in specific international classes.
  • Extract citation networks to understand the technological lineage of a specific patent family.

Key capabilities

  • Searches across USPTO Patent Full-Text and Image Database (PatFT) and Application Full-Text and Image Database (AppFT).
  • Queries the Trademark Electronic Search System (TESS) for active and pending marks.
  • Retrieves structured metadata including inventors, assignees, filing dates, and legal status.
  • Supports complex boolean logic and field-specific filtering for precise results.

Example prompts

  • "Find all patents assigned to 'Apple Inc.' filed between 2020 and 2023 related to battery technology."
  • "Search TESS for trademarks containing the word 'Solar' in Class 9 that are currently registered."
  • "List the top 10 inventors with the most cited patents in the field of renewable energy from the last decade."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your queries use specific classification codes or inventor names to avoid overwhelming result sets, as USPTO databases contain millions of records. Be aware that data latency may exist for very recent filings compared to official government portals.
