GizmoMaker partners with iptorch.com to apply AI-driven patent search across its innovation pipeline

TEL AVIV — GizmoMaker today announced a partnership with iptorch.com to integrate artificial-intelligence and vector-database patent search into its product development process. The collaboration is intended to accelerate prior-art discovery, freedom-to-operate assessments and patent drafting across the company's hardware ventures.

Under the agreement, GizmoMaker's engineering and intellectual-property teams will use iptorch.com's search platform during the earliest phases of concept development, allowing the company to evaluate novelty and IP landscape before committing to prototyping and tooling.

GizmoMaker files and manages patents as a core part of taking products from idea to mass production. The company said AI-assisted search will help it protect its inventions more efficiently while reducing the time required to bring differentiated products to market.

The two companies plan to refine the workflow over the course of the partnership and to explore additional applications of the technology across GizmoMaker's portfolio of current and future ventures.
