▣ DATA EXTRACTION

US Patent Search & Records API

What it does

US Patent Intelligence gives you a complete working surface over PatentsView-disambiguated US patent grant data — search, full record detail, related entities, full-text sections, and portfolio-level analytics — all in one API.

Start with search: /patents/search handles simple keyword + year lookups against title and abstract, while /patents/advanced-search adds multi-constraint filtering by patent type, WIPO kind, CPC section, assignee name, inventor name, and an explicit year range with pagination via limit/offset. Both return patent_id, patent_title, patent_date, patent_type, wipo_kind, and num_claims for each hit.

Once you have a patent_id, /patents/{patent_id} returns the full technical envelope: core grant metadata and abstract, disambiguated assignee records, disambiguated inventor records, active CPC classifications, and an aggregate citation count. If you only need one slice of that envelope, dedicated endpoints are available for /assignees, /inventors, /classifications, and /citations (the latter supporting backward or forward direction to trace prior art or later filings that cite the patent).

For full-text work, /patent-text/search runs relevance-ranked search across indexed patent sections (claims, abstract, description, summary) with optional section_type and year-range filters, and /patent-text/{patent_id} retrieves all indexed text sections for a specific patent in order.

Three analytics endpoints round out the API for reporting and dashboards: /patents/analytics/yearly-trend (granted volume and average claims by year), /patents/analytics/cpc-breakdown (top classification combinations by volume), and /patent-text/analytics/section-breakdown (document counts by section type).

Use US Patent Intelligence for prior-art review, competitive research, patent discovery tools, or any workflow that needs both patent metadata and searchable patent text without building an index from scratch. Every response includes attribution data for source and license tracking.
