Emirus provides a problem‑based patent discovery platform that lets innovators input a real‑world challenge and instantly retrieve patented solutions matched to that problem. Leveraging a custom AI model trained on over 170 million patents, the service structures problem and solution profiles, offers private searches, and visualises technology evolution across 150+ jurisdictions. This enables users to identify gaps, emerging trends, and actionable ideas without relying on traditional keyword searches.

Problem
Innovators and R&D teams often rely on keyword‑based patent searches that are outdated, labor‑intensive, and miss relevant prior art, making it difficult to identify existing solutions, gaps, or emerging trends for a specific technical challenge.
Solution
Emirus provides a problem‑based patent discovery platform that lets users describe a real‑world challenge in natural language. An AI model vectorises the input, matches it against structured problem profiles extracted from over 170 million patents across more than 150 jurisdictions, and clusters the results into clear solution categories. The system presents these solutions with similarity scores, visual innovation maps, and exportable insights while keeping the user's query data private and never using it for further AI training. This approach enables rapid identification of patented approaches, unmet needs, and trend patterns directly aligned with the problem at hand.
Target Audience
Primary users are corporate R&D departments, product development engineers, and intellectual‑property professionals who need efficient, problem‑focused access to global patent knowledge.
