TESTIMONIALS

What our customers say

“As a deeptech startup without in-house IP counsel, we used to dread patentability questions. FTO Checker gave us a first read in 30 seconds, with enough clarity to decide whether to push forward or pivot.”

CTO, MEDTECH STARTUP Alexei S.

“Our legal team was impressed by how quickly we could get a structured overview of potentially conflicting patents. It’s now part of our early-stage validation process.”

INNOVATION MANAGER Claire H.

“I just wanted to know if my idea might get me into trouble before filing anything. FTO Checker gave me a clear answer — with actual patent references — for one tenth of what a traditional firm quoted me.”

SOLO INVENTOR Jamal R.
HOW IT WORKS

From description to direction in three simple steps

DESCRIBE

Describe your invention in your own words — no legalese needed. Just tell us what it does, how it works, and what makes it special. Our AI takes care of the rest — from vague ideas to precise queries.

Magnifying glass

SEARCH

Our AI uses multiple search strategies to find what matters. It scans global patent records, scientific publications and the general web. You don’t have to think like a patent examiner — our AI already does.

CONFIDENTIALITY AND PRIVACY

We care about confidentiality

We delete your invention after processing

We do not store your invention description.

Once your report is delivered, your input is permanently deleted from our server and database.

No backups, no indexing, no reuse. Your invention stays yours — always.

We never submit your exact description

To protect your confidentiality, we don’t search using your exact wording.

Instead, our AI rewrites your description into several neutral technical formulations before querying The Lens IP database.

This ensures maximum protection of your intellectual input.

We don't train AI models on your invention description

Your invention description is not used to train, fine-tune, or evaluate any AI model — neither ours nor any third party’s.

We do not collect your input for future model improvement, and we do not contribute it to any dataset used for machine learning.

Our service is designed to process your submission once and discard it, without feeding it into any learning system.

We use The Lens intellectual property database

We search against The Lens, a trusted, non-profit global patent database.

Unlike commercial providers, The Lens doesn’t log or reuse user queries.

It offers full transparency over the source data, covering patents and scientific publications worldwide.

Our tech infrastructure providers are ISO/IEC 27001 certified

We run on infrastructure that meets the international gold standard for data security.

From data storage to email delivery, all processing is handled by providers that are ISO/IEC 27001 certified, ensuring robust protection of your input from start to finish.

Our server and database are based in the European Union

All your data is processed and stored — temporarily — on servers located in the European Union.

We are a Swiss company using European infrastructure providers to ensure full GDPR compliance and better control over data residency.

Each report comes with a confidentiality commitment

Every FTO report we send includes a clear statement: your input stays confidential.

We’re not a law firm, but we treat your invention as sensitive by default — and we never reuse, disclose, or train models on it.
