With permission, a read-only review maps relevant architecture, methods, and data flows across the agreed systems.
OI Patent CO · OI Tech Patent Service
Your codebase may hold protectable inventions.
OI Tech Patent reviews repositories, databases, and infrastructure to identify potential invention candidates for attorney review. We develop the strongest candidates into claims and prepare approved U.S. patent applications for filing.

Enter a public GitHub repository in the exact format below. OI Tech Patent will retrieve selected source files from its current default-branch commit and run an automated preliminary technical scan.
Live public-source screening: read-only requests are processed in bounded batches over about five minutes. Repository code is never built or executed. The scan does not search patent databases or determine patentability.
Format examples:
github.com/acme-labs/streamkit
github.com/nimbus/edge-cache

02 · Method
Scan. Review. File.
Three coordinated stages, with client approval before any filing.
02
Review
Potential invention candidates are compared with relevant prior art and evaluated by counsel for a filing recommendation.
03
File
Counsel drafts the application, the client confirms inventorship and assignment details, and approved materials are filed.
03 · Technical mapping
Your systems, mapped to prior art
The review isolates methods, flows, and data structures that may support patent claims. Counsel then evaluates novelty, non-obviousness, and filing strategy; no search can guarantee a patent grant.
04 · Coverage
Where candidates may emerge
Eligibility and patentability depend on the specific facts, prior art, and governing law. Common review areas include:
Systems & infrastructure
Caching, scheduling, data pipelines, deployment, and orchestration methods.
Machine learning
Technical model architectures, training procedures, inference, and serving improvements.
Algorithms & data structures
Search, ranking, matching, compression, and indexing techniques.
Protocols & APIs
Synchronization, authentication, messaging, and consensus methods.
Interfaces & workflows
Technical interaction models, automation flows, and visualization methods.
Brand & source code
Eligible logo artwork and software code for copyright; names and logos for trademark review.
05 · Pricing
One focused engagement.
The signed engagement agreement defines the filing scope, government fees, prosecution work, and any exclusions before work begins.
Standard engagement
$5,999.99
One-time service fee for the agreed scan, review, drafting, and initial U.S. filing scope.
Start engagementConflicts clearance and a signed engagement agreement are required before representation begins.
Included within the agreed scope
- Read-only system review of approved repositories and technical materials.
- Prior-art analysis focused on selected invention candidates.
- Attorney-drafted application materials for client review and approval.
- Initial U.S. patent filing support with correct inventorship and assignment documentation.
- Brand and software protection support: copyright registration for qualifying logo artwork and software source code, plus trademark application support for eligible company and software/product names.
- Client ownership of work product and filed rights as specified in the engagement agreement.
Copyright does not protect names or short phrases. Trademark and copyright filings depend on clearance, eligibility, client approval, and agency examination; registration is not guaranteed.
06 · Deliverables
A documented handoff
Decision-ready report
Candidate concepts, relevant prior art, open questions, and filing recommendations are kept together for review.
Clear ownership record
Inventorship, assignments, approvals, and filing receipts are documented as part of the client file.
07 · Questions
Before you begin
When does patent-pending status begin?
Patent-pending status begins after a qualifying patent application is filed. It does not begin when a scan starts or when a candidate is identified. We provide the official filing receipt after submission.
How quickly is an application submitted?
The standard service target and any expedited deadline are stated in the signed engagement agreement. Timing begins only after conflicts clearance, access, required inventor information, and client approvals are complete.
Is my code and data safe?
Access is limited to the systems and permissions approved for the engagement. Security, retention, confidentiality, and deletion commitments are documented before access is granted. An NDA can be completed when appropriate.
Who owns the filings?
Applications identify the legally correct inventors and are assigned to the client when the required rights and documents are in place. The signed engagement agreement controls ownership of work product and filed rights.
How are the logo, software, and names protected?
Qualifying original logo artwork and software source code may be registered with the U.S. Copyright Office. Company names, software/product names, and source-identifying logos are evaluated for trademark protection because names and short phrases are not copyrightable. All filings are subject to clearance, eligibility, client approval, and agency review.
What does the price cover?
The $5,999.99 service fee covers the work specifically listed in the signed engagement agreement. Government filing fees, additional applications or trademark classes, office-action responses, prosecution, international filings, and other work are included only when the agreement says so.
