Solve Intelligence vs Cursor

About

Solve Intelligence is an AI-powered patent drafting and prosecution platform that automates the most time-consuming workflows in intellectual property law — generating first-draft patent applications, responding to patent office actions, creating claim charts for infringement analysis, and assisting patent prosecutors with the research and document creation that consumes significant attorney time. Founded in 2023 in the UK, Solve Intelligence raised $15.5 million total including a $12 million Series A led by 20VC (Harry Stebbings' fund), serving 200+ IP teams globally including Siemens, Avery Dennison, and DLA Piper with millions in ARR and 25% month-over-month revenue growth.\n\nSolve Intelligence's AI analyzes invention disclosures and prior art to generate patent application drafts (including claims, description, and drawings descriptions) that patent attorneys review and refine rather than writing from scratch — significantly reducing the hours required per application filing. The office action response tool analyzes USPTO and EPO examiner rejections and generates the legal arguments and claim amendments most likely to overcome each rejection, drawing on the AI's knowledge of prosecution strategies and patent law. This is particularly valuable given the shortage of qualified patent attorneys relative to the volume of patent applications.\n\nIn 2025, Solve Intelligence competes in the legal AI market for intellectual property with PatSnap (patent analytics), Anaqua (IP management software), and general legal AI platforms like Harvey AI for AI-powered IP law workflows. Patent prosecution is an attractive AI application because it is document-intensive, rule-based (following USPTO/EPO procedural requirements), and highly repetitive (similar document types with different technical content) — characteristics that suit current AI capabilities well. The 25% month-over-month growth validates strong market pull. The 2025 strategy focuses on expanding beyond UK/European IP firms to US patent firms, deepening claim chart automation for patent licensing teams, and adding prosecution analytics that help firms track office action response success rates.
