Solve Intelligence

Solve Intelligence develops an AI platform for legal professionals working across the patent lifecycle. Core capabilities include invention harvesting and collecting ideas from inventors, drafting patent applications, handling continuations and divisionals, preparing responses to office actions with analysis of rejections and objections, coordinating global filings, searching patents, non-patent literature and case law, converting files into patent figures, generating genus compounds and Markush claims, and analyzing biological sequences and generating sequence listings. The software is designed to be compatible with Microsoft Word and to integrate with tools and processes IP teams already use, and it supports all major technical fields including software, hardware, life sciences and chemistry.

In December 2025 the company launched Charts, a product aimed at patent litigation and high-volume IP analysis. Charts generates infringement and invalidity claim charts, standard-essential patent mappings, freedom-to-operate and clearance reviews, claim construction analyses, and portfolio-level comparisons and thematic analyses across thousands of documents, with full citation support and exposed AI reasoning. Customers can encode firm- or company-specific know-how into reusable AI styles, workflows and templates shared across their organization.

Confidentiality and security are presented as a central design constraint. Solve Intelligence states it holds SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certification and addresses ISO 42001, GDPR and CCPA requirements; it does not use customer inputs or outputs to train any AI model, offers zero-data-retention settings for LLM providers, allows customers to choose the jurisdiction in which data is stored and processed, and runs on enterprise AWS infrastructure with AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.3 in transit. Its trust center lists 13 subprocessors, including Adobe, Amazon Web Services, Anthropic, Datadog and Google, with US- or EU-based subprocessors selected according to customer preference.

Founding story

Solve Intelligence was founded in 2023 by CEO Dr. Chris Parsonson, who holds a PhD in AI from UCL, his brother Angus Parsonson as CTO, and Dr. Sanj Ahilan as Chief Research Officer.

Business model

Solve Intelligence sells subscription AI software to law firms and corporate in-house IP departments, serving both outside counsel and in-house teams and positioning the platform as a shared workspace for collaboration between them. Prospective customers enter through a booked demo, and the company segments inquiries by organization size and by use case (claim charts, prosecution, drafting) and by role (solo inventor, in-house R&D or engineering, innovation/technology procurement, in-house IP counsel, patent practitioner or litigator).

Recurring software revenue: annual recurring revenue grew more than tenfold in the year to December 2025 to eight figures, and the company reported being profitable, having generated more cash than it had raised since inception.

Traction

More than 700 corporate and law firm IP teams across six continents are cited on the company's website and trust center; December 2025 press coverage cited more than 400 IP teams. Annual recurring revenue grew more than 10x in the year to December 2025 to eight figures, with the company reporting profitability. Average actions performed per user per week rose 265% since the Series A, and customers report 50-90% efficiency and quality improvements, including 60-80% time savings on drafting.

Latest developments

On 9 December 2025 the company announced a $40M Series B co-led by Visionaries and existing investor 20VC, with Thomson Reuters and Y Combinator increasing their ownership and Operator Collective and angel investors participating; total funding reached $55M. The same announcement launched Charts for claim charting, litigation and portfolio analysis, and set out plans to open offices in New York City and Munich and to grow the team of AI researchers, patent attorneys and software engineers. A partnership with Thomson Reuters to support AI adoption across patent practices is also promoted on the company website.
