Solve Intelligence

Introduction

Solve Intelligence is a London-based AI platform for patent professionals, founded in 2023 and part of Y Combinator's Summer 2023 batch. It serves over 700 in-house IP teams and law firms, including named customers Intel, DLA Piper, and Finnegan, and has partnered with Thomson Reuters to deepen AI adoption in patent practice. Per Y Combinator's own company directory, it has raised a reported $12 million Series A (April 2025) and a $40 million Series B (December 2025), for roughly $55 million total — these figures come from a single source (YC's listing) and were not independently corroborated elsewhere, though the backer names (Microsoft, Thomson Reuters, Y Combinator, 20VC) match what Solve Intelligence states on its own site.

Legal Research

Solve Intelligence supports patent-specific research including invalidity assessments and freedom-to-operate reviews, though it does not cover general case law or statutory research outside patent practice.

Contract Analysis

Contract analysis is not part of Solve Intelligence's offering; it is built specifically for patent application and prosecution work.

Document Drafting

Patent application drafting is Solve Intelligence's core strength, including figure generation and office-action response drafting across multiple technology areas.

Legal Translation

Solve Intelligence does not offer a dedicated legal translation feature.

Predictive Analytics

Its invalidity assessments and freedom-to-operate reviews provide a form of risk analysis on patent claims, though not case-outcome prediction in the litigation sense.

Pricing

Solve Intelligence does not publish pricing; interested teams need to contact the company directly.

User Reviews and Ratings

Solve Intelligence's G2/Capterra listings could not be independently verified during this review (Crunchbase and G2 were both unreachable at review time); its own site features a named quote from Intel's Chief Patent Counsel praising its customer collaboration on templates.

Verdict

Solve Intelligence is a fast-growing, well-capitalized specialist in AI-assisted patent drafting and prosecution, with credible enterprise customers (Intel, DLA Piper) and a Thomson Reuters partnership lending it real institutional weight for a 2023-founded company. It is a strong fit for IP teams specifically, not a general legal AI tool, and its reported funding figures should be independently reconfirmed given they trace to a single source.
