Terms of Service

Forge IP Holdings, LLC — Effective April 27, 2026

01

Not a Law Firm. Not Legal Advice.

PatentForge is a software tool, not a law firm. Forge IP Holdings, LLC is not a patent attorney, patent agent, or law firm. Nothing generated by PatentForge — including prior art analyses, patentability assessments, claim drafts, USPTO search strategies, or any other output — constitutes legal advice, a legal opinion, or the practice of law. No attorney-client relationship is formed by your use of this service. Do not make patent filing decisions based solely on PatentForge output without consulting a licensed patent attorney or registered patent agent.

02

Who We Are

PatentForge™ is operated by Forge IP Holdings, LLC, a Missouri limited liability company. References to "we," "us," or "our" mean Forge IP Holdings, LLC.

03

Acceptance

By accessing or using app.patentforge.app, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the service.

04

What PatentForge Does

PatentForge uses artificial intelligence to assist with patent research tasks including prior art searching, CPC classification, claim drafting, and patentability landscape analysis. All output is AI-generated and may contain errors, omissions, outdated information, or inaccuracies. We make no warranty that any output is complete, accurate, or suitable for any particular purpose.

05

Your Invention Data

You retain full ownership of any invention description, concept, or intellectual property you submit to PatentForge. We do not claim any ownership, license, or rights to your invention content. Your input is transmitted to third-party AI infrastructure providers to generate research output. By using the service, you acknowledge that your input is processed by these providers subject to their respective data policies. Do not submit information you consider a trade secret without understanding that it is transmitted over the internet to AI processing infrastructure.

06

No Patentability Guarantee

PatentForge output does not guarantee that your invention is patentable, novel, non-obvious, or eligible for patent protection. Prior art searches conducted through PatentForge are not exhaustive. A patent examiner or federal court may find prior art that PatentForge did not identify. We are not liable for any patent application rejection, invalidation, or loss of IP rights based on reliance on PatentForge output.

07

Session Limits and Access

Free tier access is limited and restricted to certain research modes. We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or terminate any tier of access at any time with or without notice.

08

Acceptable Use

You agree not to use PatentForge to submit content that is unlawful, fraudulent, or infringes the intellectual property rights of others. You agree not to attempt to reverse-engineer, scrape, or abuse the service.

09

Disclaimer of Warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY MISSOURI LAW, FORGE IP HOLDINGS, LLC SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF PATENTFORGE, INCLUDING ANY LOSS OF IP RIGHTS, PATENT FILING COSTS, OR ATTORNEY FEES INCURRED IN RELIANCE ON OUR OUTPUT.
