Verifiable real publications

Ask an AI about a patent and it can invent a publication number that doesn't exist. FindIP is different — every result is a publication that actually exists in a database, and you can check each one.

Why invented patents don't appear

A general LLM generates plausible-looking patent numbers from training-data patterns, which is how nonexistent numbers slip in. FindIP looks results up in its own patent database and returns them. The AI (ChatGPT / Claude) only summarizes those results in prose — every cited publication number comes from FindIP's database.

A general LLM alone

Generates patent numbers → nonexistent numbers creep in

Connected to FindIP

Looks them up in a real database → every number exists and is verifiable

Check the results yourself

Every result carries a real publication number, and you can open the document at findip.ai/p/{publication}. For example, findip.ai/p/KR1028272620000B1. You can also cross-check against each patent office's original.

Coverage

FindIP's full-text data covers publications from 2001 onward (China from 2010), making it strong for mapping recent technology trends and running novelty checks. See live per-country, per-period figures on Data coverage.
