Frequently Asked Questions
What is a patentability search?
A patentability search (also known as novelty search) is performed to identify patent and non-patent literature which may affect an invention’s patentability.
Patent applicants must conduct thorough patentability searches before writing as well as filing a patent specification. These searches are also known as pre-application searches. It is important to note that a patentability search’s scope is narrower than a state-of-the-art search.

A patentability search can cost anywhere between USD100 to USD3,000 based on an invention’s complexity.

Companies or inventors can carry out patentability searches in-house or outsource them to third party vendors. Whether they perform searches on their own or outsource them, patentability searches are conducted on online patent search tools using keywords, CPC classifications, and citations of the prior arts of the most relevant patents found during the search process.
