Registered Patent Search

Written scope first
Inclusions and payable charges are explained before work begins.

Overview
What a patent search actually does
A patent search (prior-art search) checks whether your invention — or something close to it — has already been patented or published.
We search India's patent database (InPASS) plus major international databases.
The search covers patents, published applications, and sometimes technical literature.
Results inform whether to file, redraft the claims, or rethink the invention.
This is a novelty assessment, not a guarantee of grant — the patent office examines independently.
Benefits
Why inventors search through us
Open each benefit to see what it means for you.
File with open eyes
Knowing the prior art before filing lets your patent agent draft claims that actually stand a chance.
Avoid wasted filing costs
Patent prosecution is expensive and slow. A search now can save you from a rejection two years later.
Indian plus global coverage
Novelty is judged worldwide, not just in India. We search both.
Report your patent agent can use
Structured findings with the closest prior art highlighted — ready to hand to whoever drafts your application.
Documents
What we need to search patents for you
Clear, current documents matter more than a long checklist. Names, dates of birth and addresses should match across every record — that's what the authorities check first. Tick what you already have below.

Patent prior-art search — how it works
You’ll see each stage, what’s pending and what we need from you — so filings don’t bounce back.
Step 1 of 5
Multi-database search
We search the Indian Patent Office database, WIPO PatentScope, Espacenet, and Google Patents using keywords, patent classifications, and inventor names. One database is never enough.
Prior-art analysis against the three tests
Every close result is analysed against the three patentability tests: is it new (novelty), is it non-obvious (inventive step), and can it be made or used in industry (industrial applicability)?
Written patentability opinion
You receive a written patentability opinion: the closest prior art found, our assessment of your chances, and practical advice — file as-is, narrow the claims, or redesign around the prior art.
Freedom-to-operate flag
Beyond patentability, we flag live patents that could block you from selling your product — so you know the infringement risk before you invest in manufacturing or launch.
Filing roadmap
If the search is favourable, we outline the filing roadmap — provisional or complete specification, expected timelines, and the government fee category you fall into — so you can move to filing without delay.

No. The patent office examines independently and may find art we missed. A clear search meaningfully improves your odds — it does not remove all risk.
India's InPASS plus international databases including Espacenet and Google Patents, and technical literature where relevant.
Yes. We work under an NDA, and sharing details with us does not count as public disclosure.
Typically 5–7 working days for a thorough search and report.
We show you exactly how close they are and advise whether your invention differs enough to file — or how to redesign around them.
InPASS is free and public, but effective searching needs the right keywords, classifications, and strategies. That is the specialist part.
Nothing matches that search. Try a shorter word, or choose “All questions”.
