Context

The USPTO grants US patents to inventors and assignees all over the world. For researchers in particular, PatentsView is intended to encourage the study and understanding of the intellectual property (IP) and innovation system; to serve as a fundamental function of the government in creating “public good” platforms in these data; and to eliminate redundant cleaning, converting and matching of these data by individual researchers, thus freeing up researcher time to do what they do best—study IP, innovation, and technological change.

Contains four research datasets containing time series and micro-level data by National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) technology sub-category on applications, grants, and in-force patents spanning two centuries of innovation.

This tab-delimited file, assignees2015_5yr.txt, prepared from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), Technology Assessment and Forecast (TAF) database, displays a listing of organizations receiving the most utility patents (i.e., patents for invention) during the indicated 5 year time period. Each displayed annual count corresponds to the count of patents received in a calendar year (January 1 to December 31). It will import into a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.

Context

The Office of the Chief Economist (OCE) is responsible for advising the Under Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual Property and Director of the USPTO on the economic implications of policies and programs affecting the U.S. intellectual property (IP) system. The office disseminates detailed patent and trademark data, undertakes research, and conducts economic analysis on a variety of IP issues. OCE works with policy makers, collaborates with academics, and engages the public more generally through conferences it organizes, the publicly accessible research datasets it provides, and its publications.

Registered patent practitioners are individuals who have passed the USPTO's registration exam and met the qualifications to represent patent applicants before the USPTO. Trademark practitioners are attorneys who are active members in good standing of the bar of the highest court of any State. NOTE: Because Trademark attorneys need not apply for registration to practice trademark law before the USPTO, the USPTO does not maintain a roster of trademark attorneys. The names of attorneys who specialize in trademark law may be found online, or by contacting a local bar association. Most state bar websites offer a searchable online registry of their attorneys, and many bar associations operate attorney referral service programs.

PatentsView (description below) will go offline on March 28th. This torrent includes all bulk downloadable tables from: , along with the data dictionaries and the published logic diagram. Zip files contain tab-delimited files that are considerably larger than the zip files when uncompressed. The data includes patent activity from 1976 to 2024. Description: PatentsView is an award-winning visualization, data dissemination, and analysis platform that focuses on intellectual property (IP) data. Support for the site and the team that works on it comes from the Office of the Chief Economist at the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO). PatentsView serves students, educators, researchers, policymakers, small business owners, and the public. It offers a unique and valuable open data platform providing free data dissemination and value-added analyses to foster better knowledge of the IP system and drive new insights into invention and i

Contains the full text, images/drawings, and complex work units (tables, mathematical expressions, chemical structures, and genetic sequence data) of each patent application (non-provisional utility and plant) published weekly (Thursdays) from March 15, 2001 to present.

Contains detailed information on claims from U.S. patents granted between January 1976 and December 2014 and U.S. patent applications published between March 15, 2001 and December 2014. The dataset is derived from the Patent Grant Full Text and Patent Application Full Text bulk data files. The Office of Chief Economist (OCE) applied a Python algorithm to identify individual claims as well as the dependency relationship between claims. From the parsed claims text, OCE created six data files containing individually-parsed claims, claim-level statistics, and document-level statistics, including newly-developed measures of patent scope.

The OECD have created a search strategy for environment-related technologies (ENV-TECH) based on more than 200,000 different classification symbols, containing both International Patent Classification (IPC) symbols and Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) symbols. The classifications cover a broad spectrum of technologies related to environmental pollution, water scarcity and climate change mitigation. The classifications found in the ENV-TECH search strategy have been grouped according to their relevance within 12 innovation systems. Not all the classifications found in the ENV-TECH search strategy have been used. For each innovation system, a list of the relevant CPC and IPC schemes is created. The raw patent data found in the OECD REGPAT database (which contains all patent filed to the EPO) is then filtered for each list. This yields the number of patent applications relevant within each innovation system. These are allocated fractionally to the inventor(s) country according to inventor share. The patents are then sorted according to the priority year of filing. Only patents filed to the EPO are listed in the data. This contains inventions sought protected within the jurisdiction of the EPO and also captures international patents filed under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT), which must also be filed to the EPO. The method does, however, not list patents which are filed to either the United States Patents and Trademark Office (USPTO) or the Japan Patent Office (JPO) alone. Hence, inventions which are sought protected in the ERA countries and all the PCT member states are covered, but not inventions which are sought protected under the jurisdiction of either the USPTO or JPO alone. The patents are also listed according to the country of the inventor(s), though an invention may have been developed in a different country. Many patents are never used in any industrial application, and do therefore not contribute to innovation directly. Many inventions are also not sought patented, either because they cannot be patented or because the inventors attempt to protect the invention through other means. These inventions are not captured through patent statistics, which are then not a perfect indicator for innovation. Be aware that due to delayed data entries in the OECD patent database the values for the last couple of years might be underestimated and could possibly increase over the next years. Have this in mind when working with data from recent years.

Patent Examination Data System lets customers retrieve and download multiple records of USPTO patent application or patent filing status at no cost. PEDS contains the bibliographic, published document and patent term extension data tabs in Public PAIR from 1981 to present. There is also some data dating back to 1935. Customers can download the entire dataset containing the data for all indexed documents. There are over 13 million records in PEDS. The data can be accessed by anyone using the web interface or the provided Application Programming Interface (API). PEDS is updated daily and mirrors the data available in the Patent Application Location and Monitoring (PALM) system. PEDS provides access to public applications including: published patent applications and patents, and PCT applications that have not been published by WIPO. Any applications that have not been released by the USPTO will not be available in PEDS.
