Leveraging recent and ongoing advancements in machine learning and natural language processing, we are building systems to conduct patent search faster and more accurately than any human currently can. We are a small team with a friendly, mostly-remote culture. The company is well capitalized, having raised 9.1 million dollars in a Series Seed led by Greenoaks Capital.
