Patlytics

Patlytics is an AI-powered patent intelligence platform purpose-built for intellectual-property work, applying generative AI and large language models across the full patent lifecycle: invention harvesting and disclosure, patent application drafting, office-action analysis, prior-art and novelty search, infringement detection, invalidity contentions, claim-chart generation, portfolio pruning, vault and classification, and transactional IP due diligence. Founded in 2023 and headquartered in New York, the company raised a $40M Series B led by SignalFire in April 2026 (roughly $65M total) and counts more than 40% of the Am Law 100 among its customers. Its machine-readable surface is a hosted, OAuth-protected Model Context Protocol server at mcp.patlytics.ai that exposes read-only semantic patent search, patent/claims lookup, non-patent-literature search over OpenAlex, and access to an organization's private Patlytics portfolios and vault; there is no public REST OpenAPI, and the platform API at api.patlytics.ai is fully authentication-gated.

Patlytics publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Intellectual Property, Patents, Legal Tech, and Artificial Intelligence.

Patlytics’ developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, authentication, engineering blog, support, signup flow, and 20 more developer resources.

  description: 'The Patlytics Patent Search connector — a hosted Model Context Protocol server (Streamable HTTP) that brings
    concept-level, AI-native patent intelligence into MCP clients such as Claude. Five read-only tools cover semantic prior-art
    discovery over patent claims, bibliographic and claims lookup by publication number, non-patent-literature search (papers,
    journals, books, via OpenAlex), and listing an organization''s private Patlytics portfolios and vault patents. Access
    is restricted to existing Patlytics users: each member signs in individually through Patlytics OAuth 2.1 (authorization
    code + PKCE S256, dynamic client registration) and results are scoped to their organization. Deeper analyses — freedom-to-operate,
    infringement, invalidity and drafting — run in the Patlytics web application, linked from every result.'
