Patentability Analysis
Patentability Analysis
A patentability search—also referred to as a novelty search—involves assessing a proposed invention against existing prior art to determine the presence of novel and inventive features. This analysis is essential for identifying patentable subject matter and plays a critical role in drafting robust patent claims. 🧠📘✍️
Conducting a patentability analysis helps reduce the likelihood of objections from patent examiners during prosecution and strengthens the application against potential post-grant invalidity challenges. 🛡️⚖️✅
