Sequoia-backed Serval hits unicorn status with a $75M raise, signaling a market shift where legal operations are increasingly subsumed by broader enterprise service automation. This challenges specialized legal tech vendors and redefines how IP teams handle intake and triage.
Here is a strategic framework to overcome "Simple Application of AI" rejections by leveraging Data Preprocessing and Hyperparameter constraints.
Prevent AI hallucinations and ensure full support (35 U.S.C. §112, EPO Art. 84) by generating the patent specification after finalizing claims. Discover 5 "Claims-First" prompt templates to lock the AI within the legal scope, covering system claims, method sequences, and means-plus-function limitations.
"What if I miss a killer X-reference simply because the applicant used 'Coupling Means' instead of 'Fastening Member'?" The nightmare of facing a rejection based on a document you missed—because of a single keyword—is real. Today, I’m sharing a method to drastically reduce this risk using Generative AI (ChatGPT, Claude, etc.). This isn’t just about "asking AI." It’s about strategic prompt engineering to filter out noise and extract the exact keywords needed for a robust search string.
