The whole patent corpus. One answer you can stand behind.
Ask us what a patent is worth, what a license covers, or which claim to lead with. The legal question decides what to look for. Our technology finds it, at a scale no team could manage by hand.
How we helpHow it works

Hundreds of calls, each made against your specific question
2Train
The calls become training data for a model built for that one question
3Answer
It scores the full corpus, and nothing it surfaces reaches you unreviewed
ClaimScore, our claim-breadth model, puts this to work: very broad claims face 3.6× the odds of an infringement finding that very narrow ones do.
How ClaimScore worksWe built Nova to do our own patent work. Nova Patents is the first tool you can use yourself, and it’s free. A tool for working with sets of patents and a patent chat are coming soon.
All toolsUnderstand any patent within seconds
Free, and it doesn’t track what you search. What you look up can reveal your strategy, so it stays yours.

Uber has worked with us since the first day: at Legal Analytics, through the Aon years, and now at Novelty Hill IP
Our historyUber signs on with Legal Analytics, David’s company, to prepare for its IPO
Aon acquires Legal Analytics, and the work deepens into prosecution and threat analytics
Aon leaves IP, David and Jack start Novelty Hill IP, and Uber’s IP team replies the same day
More clients, harder questions, and a tool suite grown out of the work
The team
David and Jack started the firm and still run it, and the team has grown around them since. You’re not hiring a tool or a report. You’re hiring people who pair the technology with their own judgment to tell you the truth, even when it’s inconvenient.
The story behind the firm
An engineer and a lawyer, at the same time
A decade writing code at Microsoft, on the Windows kernel and Age of Empires. Then law school (summa cum laude), a judicial clerkship, high-stakes patent litigation, and years of patent practice at Microsoft.
A patent strategist with decades of practice
Years at Microsoft and beyond, building portfolios, working deals, and reading claims faster than anyone we know. Jack knows exactly what a good answer to a patent question looks like, which is why the models learn from him.
