Founder of UBIAI and Kudra, the document agentic platform used by startups, Fortune 500 companies and financial institutions. A physicist, inventor and former Intel engineer who knows what it takes to get an invention from the lab to a filed patent.
Most inventions never make it out of the lab notebook.
R&D teams move fast and patent work moves slowly. Kudra closes the gap: it finds what is patentable, shows what is new, and carries it to a filing a practitioner stands behind.
One supervisor. Six specialists.
The supervisor frames the investigation, breaks it into tasks, coordinates specialist agents across patent and technical sources, checks their work, and hands the reasoning to a practitioner.
Frames the investigation and hands out the work
Reads the matter, splits it into tasks, sends each one to the right specialist, tracks what has been covered, and checks every result before it reaches your practitioner.
Request a walkthroughYour whole R&D pipeline. One review queue.
Each invention gets its own supervisor and specialists, set up around its technical field, terminology and prior filings. Five disclosures or fifty, every matter runs in parallel and keeps its full search history.
From invention disclosure to filed patent.
Start from the substance of the invention, not a short list of keywords. Each stage builds on the last, so nothing gets rebuilt from scratch.
One harvest. Four ways to fund the work.
The same investigation that supports a patent filing also makes the case for funding. Kudra reuses the invention inventory, novelty evidence and technical narrative for grants, SBIR/STTR proposals and investor conversations, so nothing is written twice.
Provisional and utility applications built on the evidence, then reviewed, corrected and filed by a patent practitioner.
Match each invention to open federal, state and foundation solicitations, and draft the technical narrative from the evidence you already have.
Phase I and Phase II proposals for agencies such as DOE, NSF and DoD: innovation, significance, work plan and commercialization plan, grounded in your inventions.
Turn the harvest into an IP story investors can diligence: what you own, what is novel, and how the patent strategy protects the market.
Search where technical information actually appears.
Kudra investigates patent and non-patent sources together, so the investigation is never limited to one database or one search formulation.
AI-assisted does not mean judgment-free.
Kudra supports the practitioner. It never replaces one. Use it to expand and organize the investigation, then apply professional expertise where it counts.
- Expand and organize the investigation
- Surface potentially relevant evidence
- Explore terminology variations
- Build context around novelty
- Organize the reasoning
- Prepare a drafting starting point
- Verify the sources
- Evaluate legal significance
- Refine the claims
- Make the final call, and file
Built for confidential IP work.
Invention disclosures carry commercially sensitive technical information, so confidentiality is a first-order requirement, not a footnote.
Start with one invention.
For practitioners and IP teams
45-min walkthroughIndependent patent agents, IP boutiques and prosecution teams with more matters than hours. We walk a real workflow on a matter-shaped example from your practice: disclosure, evidence review, claim direction and draft. No generic AI demo.
- Software, electronics and computer-implemented inventions
- Better fixed-fee economics
- More capacity without lowering review standards
For startups and R&D teams
Harvesting is freeEnergy, climate-tech and deep-tech teams. We find the inventions in your pilot data, notebooks and repos, then turn them into a practitioner-reviewed filing, grant and SBIR/STTR proposals, and an IP story for your next raise.
Background and prior art, summary, detailed description, figure descriptions and claims, assembled from the investigation and ready for practitioner review.
Common questions.
Will this replace professional judgment?
No. Kudra assists with research, evidence organization, claim-strategy exploration and drafting. Professional review and decision-making remain essential, and every filing goes through a patent practitioner.
Is this just another AI writing tool?
No. The workflow begins with investigation and evidence mapping. Drafting is one stage of the process, not the entire product.
Can it find every relevant reference?
No system should make that promise. Kudra expands and iterates the investigation across multiple source types. Practitioners still review, verify and apply their judgment to the results.
Can I use it with confidential invention disclosures?
Kudra is built privacy-first: inventions are never used for model training, and the architecture is designed to avoid permanently storing sensitive invention data. Review the full security and data-handling terms before using it for client matters.
Will it produce a final application without review?
Kudra generates a complete patent draft, but it must be reviewed, corrected and adapted by a qualified practitioner before professional use. The draft is a starting point built on the research, not a filing-ready document.
What does Kudra search?
Global patent databases alongside non-patent technical evidence: scientific literature, research papers, technical standards and public technical sources. The search iterates as it develops, and findings are mapped back to the invention.
Can Kudra help us win grants or SBIR/STTR funding?
Kudra matches your harvested inventions to open solicitations and drafts the technical narrative, innovation and commercialization sections from the evidence it has already gathered. Your team reviews and submits every proposal, and no one can guarantee an award: those decisions rest with the funding agency.
How does this help us raise money?
Investors want to know what you own and why it is defensible. The harvest gives you an invention inventory, novelty evidence and a patent strategy you can put in a pitch deck and a data room.
How do we get started?
Start with one matter-shaped example. We frame the invention, run the investigation across patent and technical sources, review the evidence against the invention, and show you the claim direction and draft.
