Check Patents Before You Sell

Choose whether to check your product’s appearance or how it works. Copy the instructions into your AI assistant, then add your product details.

Copy This Prompt to Your Agent

Paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, or your own agent to start your patent check.

I want to check a product for potentially relevant design patents before I sell it.

Use Nexscope's Design Patent Search API to help me with this check.

First, read the API documentation:
https://www.nexscope.ai/api-docs/ruiguan-detection-patent-design?view=documentation

Start by asking me for the product image and the marketplace or country where I plan to sell it.
Use my securely configured Nexscope API key. Never expose the key in a URL, report, or chat message.
Return the most relevant patent records with publication numbers, drawings, similarity context, owners, and available legal status.
Explain why each result may be relevant and preserve links to the source records.
Do not treat similarity as infringement probability or no matches as permission to sell.
Clearly identify anything that needs professional legal review.
Your agent needs Nexscope API access before it can run the check.

Patent Search, Explained

What sellers need to know before checking a product.

Should I use Design Patent Search or Utility Patent Search?

Use Design Patent Search when you want to check a product’s appearance from an image. Use Utility Patent Search when you want to check how a product works from its name and functional description.

What do I need to start a patent check?

For a design search, provide a clear product image and the market where you plan to sell. For a utility search, provide the product name and a specific description of its function or mechanism.

Which countries and regions are covered?

Design Patent Search covers more than 25 jurisdictions, including the United States, European Union, United Kingdom, China, Japan, and others shown above. Utility Patent Search currently covers United States patents.

Does a similar patent result mean my product infringes?

No. A match identifies a record worth reviewing; it is not an infringement decision. Final risk depends on the patent claims or design scope, your product, the selling market, and professional legal analysis.

How can my AI agent use Nexscope?

Connect the relevant Nexscope API, copy the ready-to-use instructions above into your agent, and then provide your product details. Your agent can run the check and return structured, source-linked patent records.
