"The best for checking patent claims, responses to USPTO Office actions, and applications"

5/5

What do you like best about ClaimMaster?

Easy to use - plugs into MS Word. So you can run it multiple times if needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ClaimMaster?

Can be time consuming for multiply-dependent claims (but that is rare) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ClaimMaster:

Do the trial - you will be impressed Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ClaimMaster solving and how is that benefiting you?

Product does a great job at detecting non-strict antecedent basis issues, which, for complicated claims, can be a huge, huge timesaver. Also good at correcting smaller errors, such as incorrect claim status identifiers and possibly ambiguous terms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Awesome patent prosecution tool"

5/5

What do you like best about ClaimMaster?

There are so many features I use every day. The IDS feature that downloads the information, fills out the form, and downloads foreign patent references is a time saver. The batch downloading of PAIR documents is very convenient to get all the office actions, etc. each day. I also use the antecedent basis and part number checking. The claims compare feature and claim renumber feature are great to be sure the issued patent is correct. Populating USPTO forms prevents errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ClaimMaster?

I haven't run into any things that I dislike. They periodically send updates which fix issues usually caused by changes at the USPTO. I wish it would allow 2 users per subscription so my paralegal can do some of the tasks without me having to buy her own subscription. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ClaimMaster:

The more you use the program, the more the features become indispensable and you will wonder how you managed without it. Take time to try each feature - because there are a lot. You might not think you would use a feature, but after trying it, you may change your mind. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ClaimMaster solving and how is that benefiting you?

I was looking for improved efficiency and accuracy. It quickly takes care of tasks that would be very time consuming otherwise. The program accurately fills out forms with the correct data from the patent file at the USPTO. It integrates with private PAIR to get data. It also connects with the EPO to get data and download PDF files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ClaimMaster solving and how is that benefiting you?

ClaimMaster allows checking of claims and other portions of a patent application (reference numbers, etc). It is a great way to double check applications and response for any issues prior to submission. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"ClaimMaster is Essential for Patent Drafting"

5/5

What do you like best about ClaimMaster?

I love the Time-Saving Tools, especially the ability to update amendments and status indicators. I also think the family tree tool is awesome. It's incredibly helpful and a fun value added service we can provide our clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ClaimMaster?

I haven't found anything I dislike. I use FoundationIP for form generation and IDS generation so those tools are not ones I use. However, if our Firm did not have FoundationIP, I would be interested in these additional options available through this software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ClaimMaster:

This tool is invaluable to the patent drafting process. I highly recommend the trial if you are unsure. After a month, you will see that you need to go ahead and purchase this software. There are so many tools in this one product, including downloading documents and data from Private/Public PAIR, IDS tool, claim comparison--you need this product! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ClaimMaster solving and how is that benefiting you?

This product makes preparing office action responses and clean copies of claims so quick and easy. It saves our staff so much time. For our associates, the ability to check the application for inconsistencies has made our patent drafts better and cleaner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"ClaimMaster is great for high level review of draft applications. "

5/5

What do you like best about ClaimMaster?

Automated figure number and antecedent basis review. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ClaimMaster?

It claims to be customizable but is very difficult to customize without SW or IT background. I would love to see some kind of GUI or wizard that could walk a knucklehead like me through custom rule making. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Claim master leads to Granted Patents"

5/5

What do you like best about ClaimMaster?

I llike the way it checks my claims for errors and antecedent issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ClaimMaster?

The tool allows you to manually add parsing preferences, but does not allow the parsing preferences to be attached to a specific document that has your claims. Instead there is only one file use to store the parsing preferences for all the Patents one is working on. This is a real hassle as you go between Patents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ClaimMaster:

Well worth the money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ClaimMaster solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am an engineer working in a two man technical startup. To save money, I have personnaly written and filed all our patent appplications. Claim master provided me a tool to write high quality claims without a lawyer. I have no law background, but managed to get 18 U.S . Patents granted using claim master .

"A must-have tool for patent drafting. "

5/5

What do you like best about ClaimMaster?

Claimmaster constantly spots errors in my claims even when I'm sure I have none. Gives me piece of mind that my claims are in good form before I send to others for review. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ClaimMaster?

The antecedent basis checker is good, but can be improved. For example, if i say, "selecting a thing"...then later say "the selected thing", claim master flags that as an antecedent error, when it is not. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ClaimMaster?

Automated features for document editing and data/PDF capture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can be a little glitchy, for example when I have generated claim status identifiers, it can miss the claims and make seemingly random edits in the specification text. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
