Legal AI is built for lawyers and filing services are built for everyone else. Between them an invention changes hands, usually as an email with attachments, and most of the client's work does not survive the handover. The attorney starts again, because nobody can see where the earlier work came from.
ZeroToIP keeps the client's work and the attorney's filing in one record. Every decision along the way is attributed to the person who made it, and the record cannot be edited afterward.
In our products the model proposes and a person decides. Nothing a model produced reaches a filing without a named person approving that change. Every conclusion names the evidence it stands on. A search that found nothing on thin evidence is reported as thin evidence, not as a clearance, and a step that failed is recorded as a failure.
We started the company so that protecting an invention would not depend on the size of the budget behind it. The platform does the drafting work, and a registered patent attorney at a partner firm reviews and files.
