IP intelligence for founders & inventors
FyrDraft helps founders and inventors figure out what’s genuinely new in their work, which competitors’ patents could block it, and how to grow an idea into something truly patentable. It puts real IP analysis — freedom-to-operate, novelty, and landscape — within reach of any budget, no $20–50k legal bill required.
Ask IP questions in plain language and get answers you can act on — even if you’ve never filed a patent.
Answers are built on live USPTO & EPO data and a proprietary patent graph — not a chatbot guessing patent numbers.
Stop turning away good founders over budget — or writing off the hours to get them ready. They arrive organized and fluent in their IP space, so your time is expert judgment, not commodity prep: more time for claim strategy, fewer budget conversations, and a growing book of clients who scale with you.
What you can do
You’re the inventor — the genius is yours. You can feel when something’s new in your product; the hard part is knowing how to protect it. You have what it takes to invent around the obstacles — if you could only see them clearly. FyrDraft maps the IP landscape around your work: where competitors have staked their claims, and where the open ground is. Then it helps you explore and shape your invention along more patentable directions — so you turn your best ideas into real protection.
Know whose patents sit in your path before you build, ship, or raise — and where there’s room to move around them.
“Can someone’s IP shut me down if I build this way?”Pinpoint what’s truly inventive in your work versus the prior art — and what’s already been done.
“What’s actually new and worth protecting?”See what’s already owned around you and where the white space is — so you claim ground that actually protects your product.
“Where can I credibly file and win?”Find which way to grow your idea into defensible IP — toward open space, around the crowded prior art.
“Which way do I grow this into a real moat?”Turn a rough write-up into a structured disclosure with the inventive parts captured for claim support — clean and attorney-ready.
“Get this review-ready, fast.”Watch your space as new patents publish, so your strategy stays sharp as you grow.
“Tell me when the landscape shifts.”How it works
You bring the invention. FyrDraft runs the disclosure, landscape, and drafting process a top patent attorney would — with you in the loop at every step.
Start with a short questionnaire or a quick chat. FyrDraft probes like a senior attorney for the key steps, the enabling detail, and your secret sauce, turning a high-level idea into specific candidate inventions.
FyrDraft runs deep research and a patent-graph search on your novel ideas, then shows you the closest prior art against each candidate claim.
See what’s crowded and where you’re clear. When art is close, FyrDraft goes deeper — sharpening or drafting around it — and loops the search until you find defensible ground.
End with a rich, enabled disclosure and a file-ready patent, plus a short attorney guidance memo. File it yourself, or hand your attorney a running start.
Explore
As you turn ideas into products, FyrDraft maps the IP landscape around your work — so you keep your freedom to operate, see what’s genuinely patentable, and learn which direction to push an idea to make it defensible.
A traditional prior-art search costs thousands of dollars and hours of patent counsel time. On a tight budget it often falls out of scope — so founders get blindsided by the examiner’s prior art long after filing, when it’s too late to invent around it. FyrDraft makes it affordable, narrows it down, and captures your read on the closest art up front — so you focus on what’s protectable, and your attorney starts from a refined set enriched with your notes and insights, not a blank search.

FyrDraft helps you write — it never takes the pen out of your hand. Generate, review, and revise section by section.
For patent attorneys
While other AI races to auto-draft attorneys out of the deal, FyrDraft does the opposite: it sends you founders who already understand their IP space and arrive organized. Recommend it, and turn budget-limited founders you’d have to turn away into a book of business that scales.
First, write-offs become paid work. Then repetitive prep becomes time with more early founders — more shots at the one that grows into an anchor client.
Tell founders to run FyrDraft first. Founders who could never afford white-glove counsel come back prepared — and become clients you keep as they raise and scale.
Founders arrive with inventive elements extracted and disclosed for claim support. Your time goes to claim strategy and expert judgment — not the commodity prep you usually eat or write off.
IP-fluent founders mean conversations begin primed: no boilerplate, fewer budget talks, deeper strategy — and better patents within the budget each client has.
Private & secure by design
FyrDraft is built for confidential invention data — enterprise-grade identity and a private context vault for everything you share.
Loved by founders & counsel
The “critique my write-up” feature summarized my invention and showed exactly what to flesh out before I talked to a lawyer.
FyrDraft slashes the time I need for a full analysis, so I get closer to an optimal strategy, faster.
A great summary of my invention and a clear list of areas to improve. Exactly what I needed.

FAQ
Startup founders building something novel, technical and solo inventors turning what they’ve built into a filing-ready draft, and the patent attorneys who serve them — who get better-prepared clients and organized materials, so their time goes to strategy and high-value judgment.
Yes. FyrDraft is built for confidential invention data — Microsoft Entra identity on Azure and a private context vault, and your inventions are never used to train AI models. We do study usage patterns in aggregate — what people are trying to do — to decide which features and integrations to build next, but that’s product behavior, not your invention content.
You can get a long way on your own. FyrDraft takes you from blank page to a high-quality, ready-to-file patent — and we recommend filing early as a provisional to lock in your priority date as first-to-file and protect your idea, which also buys a confidential year to test it in the market. We’re building tools to help you file “pro se” (on your own) with the patent office. But for the strongest commercial protection in the years after you file, we recommend a patent attorney — and FyrDraft makes that engagement go further on any budget.
Absolutely. FyrDraft is designed for founders and inventors, not just lawyers. Ask questions in plain language, and it guides you from “what’s even worth protecting?” to a filing-ready draft.
We use the best of them under the hood — what we add is everything they’re missing to explore the IP landscape and draft a patent worth filing. A general chatbot can retrieve a handful of documents, but it can’t compare millions across art units, product categories, and claim features. It also doesn’t have what the FyrDraft team brings — the unwritten expertise of decades of senior patent-attorney practice. And while these models were trained on patents, they can’t reliably retrieve them: they confidently invent patent numbers and prior art that lead you astray.
FyrDraft fills those gaps. We give the AI the tools it needs: a proprietary patent knowledge-graph database to ask deep questions across all patents, and analysis pipelines that run real patent-prosecution workflows the same way every time, with dependable answers.
Free research with a chatbot is a fine place to start. But to draft a patent worth filing — one that holds up and protects your product against your competitors — you need AI backed by FyrDraft.
About $300–$500 for a typical user — covering IP analysis, landscaping, and drafting a patent worth filing. That’s a fraction of a traditional $20,000–$50,000 IP engagement.
Sign up and we’ll get you set up. We onboard new founders and attorneys continuously, with hands-on help so you start on the right foot.
