Protect Your Clients' Innovation with 24/7 AI-Powered IP Intake
Stop losing patent filing fees to missed calls. Our AI agents manage invention disclosures, track USPTO deadlines, and sync directly with Anaqua and Clio.
In the high-stakes world of Intellectual Property, a single missed non-extendable deadline can result in the permanent abandonment of a multi-million dollar patent application or the loss of international priority rights under the PCT. Firm managers often struggle with the manual overhead of docketing international filings or managing maintenance fee schedules across thousands of assets. The administrative burden of invention disclosure intake often pulls senior patent attorneys away from high-billable drafting work, leading to inefficiencies and increased liability.
Read Laboratories provides AI Phone Agents specifically tuned for IP workflows. By integrating with docketing software like CPA Global, IPfolio, or Patricia, our agents can provide clients with real-time status updates on their trademark applications or patent prosecution phases. This reduces the friction of client reporting and ensures that critical information—like prior art references or inventor signatures—is collected accurately and filed before the 102/103 statutory bars become an issue.
Problems We Solve
Missed Filing Deadlines
AI agents monitor incoming calls for urgent USPTO or PCT notifications, ensuring that critical 12-month convention deadlines or 30-month national phase entries are never overlooked by a busy receptionist.
Invention Disclosure Bottlenecks
Automate the initial intake of new invention disclosures. The AI collects technical details and inventor data, preparing it for the preliminary patentability search without requiring immediate attorney intervention.
Maintenance Fee Inquiries

Prior Art Coordination
Seamlessly collect and log prior art references from clients or co-counsel, ensuring they are properly documented for Information Disclosure Statements (IDS) and synced to your case management system.
Docketing Data Entry Errors
Reduce manual entry by having AI parse verbal client updates and sync them directly into platforms like IPfolio or Clio, maintaining data integrity and reducing malpractice risk.
