Number Search Form
You can search by using patent numbers or by uploading the numbers from files. The file format allowed is xlsx/ xml while uploading the records. The file size should not be more than 50 MB.
Using Number Wizard (Optional)
If you are importing numbers from another database, then you can optionally enter the source database name in the Number Wizard option present. This will help the internal engine match the numbers that you have supplied with the numbers in PatSeer database. For example you can enter Delphion if your numbers came from the Delphion database. All major databases are supported and you need to simply enter the database name.
