ClaimWorkShop will help you efficiently draft better patent applications. ClaimWorkShop provides a low-syntax environment for building a model of the invention. As you build your model, ClaimWorkShop prepares different views that will become portions of your patent application, including your claim set, drawings, and written description of those drawings. ClaimWorkShop does not purport to write the application for you, it just helps you do it with more quality, accuracy, and efficiency.

The ClaimWorkShop approach works like this. You start modeling your invention by drafting a few claims with our custom editor. The editor allows you to identify entities within your claims that represent the key concepts in the invention you are modeling. You can also annotate your claims with "human readable" text that will become part of the text of the resulting patent application. As you iteratively develop, modify, and improve your model, ClaimWorkShop automatically prepares and updates a claimset, drawings, and written description for the model.

ClaimWorkShop sure is pretty opinionated about how to draft a patent application. Yes, there are other ways to draft a patent application, like just writing it all in Word. What are the benefits of our approach? Here are just a few:

• Focus on modeling the invention with claim language. That's what clients pay us for, not for pages and pages of boilerplate. Once you get your invention modeled, ClaimWorkShop can prepare those parts of the patent application that are based on that model, all the while keeping language consistent throughout the application.
• Automatic claim renumbering. Machines are better at numbering our claims, so let us do it for you. Move claims around in the editor, the claimset is rearranged and renumbered for you. You shouldn't have to spend your time numbering and renumbering and fixing claim dependencies.
• Automatic text updating. Changed your mind about a key term in your claim? Just update the entity and see it update everywhere it is used in your claims, drawings, and patent text.
• Automatic drawing. We find drawing flow diagrams pretty boring and time consuming. Some folks think it's ok to charge clients for this kind of grunt work. We don't.
• AskAlice integration. Get immediate feedback telling you whether there is a risk that your claim might be considered invalid under Alice v. CLS Bank.

Can you write an entire application with ClaimWorkShop? Not really. Not at the moment at least. First, understand that we are giving you a technology preview. Second, we understand that old habits die hard. Word is a fine tool for drafting those other parts of your patent application, like the background, introduction, data tables, boilerplate text, and the like. Understanding this reality, we are presently developing a Word plug-in that will allow you to inject the output of ClaimWorkShop into your Word document.
