About Peer To Patent ®

Peer To Patent is a historic initiative by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) that opens the patent examination process to public participation for the first time. Peer to Patent is an online system that aims to improve the quality of issued patents by enabling the public to supply the USPTO with information relevant to assessing the claims of pending patent applications.

This pilot project connects an open network for community input to the legal decision-making process. The community supplies information and research based on its expertise. The patent examiner makes the final determination on the basis of legal standards. This process combines the democracy of open participation with the legitimacy and effectiveness of administrative decision making.

With this most recent pilot, searching for prior art will be made faster, easier, and all the more relevant with welcome access to IP.com’s acclaimed Prior Art Database, an industry-recognized go-to source for patent examiners and serious searchers worldwide.
