The chart that holds up under scrutiny
Litigation work product is examined at every stage. Markman briefing, expert depositions, summary judgment cross-references, trial exhibits. A claim chart that paraphrases evidence or summarizes what a product is doing creates exposure at each of those stages.
PatentFlare extracts every piece of evidence verbatim from the documents you upload. There is no paraphrase, no synthesized description of how the product works, no inferred behavior. Each row in the chart contains a quote that exists, character for character, in your source materials. Quotes that cannot be validated against the source are discarded before the chart is finalized.
Scoring that shows the gap
PatentFlare scores at the phrase level so a partial match is never a black box. The chart shows which part of the limitation has support and which does not, with the supporting evidence visible on the page.
Every disclosed finding is audited before delivery. The chart you send to opposing counsel reflects only direct disclosure; inferential readings are marked accordingly.
Exports that go straight into contention exhibits
DOCX export with configurable headers, footers, Bates numbering, and tables formatted with black borders in the style of actual claim chart exhibits. Excel export when you need to filter or pivot the data.
Source citations include the document name and the specific page or location for every quote. You can verify any cell in the chart without a round trip through a paralegal or a search through a production set.
From patent number to first draft in minutes
Enter the asserted patent number. PatentFlare pulls the specification, claims, and prosecution metadata from public records. Select the asserted claims. Independent claims are preselected and you can pick any subset including dependents.
Upload the product evidence: datasheets, technical manuals, internal product documentation, public product pages, or YouTube product walkthroughs. Most charts complete in three to five minutes for a single independent claim with its dependents.
What it does not replace
Counsel judgment on claim scope, infringement theory, and case strategy remains attorney work product. The audit pass is rigorous, but PatentFlare does not opine on infringement.
Construction disputes that depend on the intrinsic record or prosecution history may need attorney refinement beyond the constructions PatentFlare generates from the specification. The chart is a verifiable starting draft, not a finished contention.
