What is AI Classifier for patent portfolio benchmarking?
It’s a strategic tool—included standard with Innography—that enables you to view your own patent portfolio, or that of a competitor, through a customized lens.
AI Classifier for patent portfolio benchmarking uses AI technologies, such as machine learning and large language models (LLMs), to help you categorize patents using your own custom taxonomy.
Save time without compromising accuracy
Custom taxonomy classification
View your own portfolio — or a competitor’s — through your organization’s unique technology or product lens.
AI-powered classification at scale
Categorize thousands of patents in hours—or even minutes—using supervised machine learning and large language models.
Flexible setup
Use plain English definitions or example patents — no training data required in the LLM mode.
High accuracy
Innography AI Classifier achieved 97% accuracy when applied to a third-party "gold standard" test dataset*
Hybrid classification model
Combine machine learning and LLM approaches to classify patents in both well-defined and emerging categories.
Trusted data foundation
Powered by the Derwent World Patents Index — the world’s most comprehensive source of enhanced patent data—so you get more accurate results.
AI-powered patent classification for deeper insights
With AI Classifier, you can:
Align IP with business strategy
Categorize your portfolio using your own taxonomy to see how filing activity maps to product lines or R&D priorities.
Benchmark competitors more meaningfully
Analyze rival portfolios through your own lens to uncover strengths, gaps, and emerging threats.
Spot innovation trends and whitespace
Track growth or decline across technologies and geographies to guide investment and product development.
Accelerate time to insight
Reduce manual effort and free up analyst time for higher-value strategic work.
Support licensing and commercialization
Identify blocking patents, citation patterns, and potential licensees with greater precision.

*Test was performed by training AI Classifier on a subset of records from the “Qubit Generation for Quantum Computing” dataset developed by Patinformatics. Once trained, AI Classifier was applied to 800+ randomly selected records from the Qubit dataset, and the results were evaluated to determine accuracy. Multiple tests were performed to ensure consistent results. Results will vary when AI Classifier is applied to other datasets depending on training data and other factors.
**Speed was determined by using the entire set of training records and testing data from the Qubit Generation for Quantum Computing dataset. When applied to other datasets, results will vary based on the amount of training and testing data.
Innography AI Classifier has stood out as the patent classifier that has delivered reliable and consistent classification using our taxonomy. Innography AI Classifier has helped me save 5 to 7 hours every week– time that I’m able to use for higher value tasks.
