What Nodes-IP is
Nodes-IP is a web-based patent workspace where practitioners and an AI assistant share matter materials. Its assistant searches EPO and USPTO patent data and places relevant results into matter references. It can draft or revise claims using prior art already in a matter, write application description sections aligned with claims and figures, and prepare drawing descriptions while keeping reference signs consistent between figures and text. AI changes appear as proposals for attorney review rather than being written into a matter automatically. Applications export to .docx in the user’s filing format. The maker says customers can configure the product for matters where a client forbids AI. Nodes-IP says it encrypts data, limits systems and people exposed to each matter, binds providers to the same standard and audits systems regularly. Anthropic supplies language-model inference; prompts may include invention content and project text, while listed commercial API terms exclude submitted data from model training. Railway hosts the application and Postgres database in the EU, and Cloudflare R2 stores figures and drawings there. Pricing is available on request.
