LOCI, an invention platform offering innovators the ability to seamlessly search, analyze, protect and monetize their ideas, today announced its latest feature, LOCI Provisional Patent Application Filing.

The new LOCI Provisional Patent feature assists inventors in quickly and efficiently filing provisional patent applications through the all-in-one platform, easing the traditionally complicated and time-consuming process.

The LOCI platform includes the following capabilities:

• LOCI Search: Now a completely free feature in the platform, allows inventors to visually search the global database of millions of patents and documents for existing ideas and potential prior art using a beautiful Venn diagram.
• LOCI Invention Analysis: An affordable tool allowing inventors to receive a detailed analysis of the novelty of their idea. This analysis comes with a simple 0-100 LOCI Score indicating the originality of an idea, plus loads of supporting data to provide additional insight and ideas, all powered by machine learning and data analytics, to help inventors refine and prepare their inventions for patenting.
• LOCI Provisional Patent: For platform users that have just completed an Invention Analysis of an idea that they wish to patent, the LOCI system will generate an auto-filled application that inventors only need to review and approve before filing with the U.S. Patent Office, and/or staking on the Ethereum Blockchain. With this new capability, the LOCI Platform has become an official one-stop-shop for aspiring inventors far and wide.
• LOCI Marketplace: The LOCI Platform also provides inventors with assistance to sell, license, or otherwise monetize their ideas.
