Lightbringer has announced that companies can now work with registered patent agents directly inside AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. R&D teams can capture inventions, review patent drafts and work with patent attorneys inside AI tools they already use to develop new technology.
Deep tech companies can now capture inventions, review patent drafts and work with patent attorneys inside AI tools they already use to develop new technology.
As engineers increasingly use AI to help them design, write and test technology, important details about what they are building, and why, take shape in those conversations. Patent work often happens elsewhere, across email threads, separate portals and meetings. Teams must piece story back together when it is time to involve attorney, and valuable details can be lost.
Lightbringer brings activities closer together. Its new connections let teams capture ideas as they develop, draw on earlier invention records and keep attorney feedback connected to technical work behind it. Launch supports broader goal of making IP protection part of how companies build, with relevant knowledge available when teams need it.
“Engineers should be able to involve a patent attorney without having to stop and reconstruct everything they have been working on,” said Dominic Davies, CEO and co-founder of Lightbringer. “Bringing that collaboration into tools like Claude and ChatGPT helps teams capture what matters while the thinking is still fresh, and gives attorneys the context they need to move the work forward.”
Through supported AI assistants, R&D teams can capture inventions as they develop by turning AI conversations, design documents, pull requests and meeting notes into structured invention disclosures. Teams can fill in missing details with automated feedback on clarity, technical problem and completeness before submitting disclosure for attorney review.
Teams can draw on previous work by searching invention records and portfolio history to find related ideas and understand what has already been documented or filed. They can work with patent agents to read attorney comments and redlines, respond to feedback, and approve or request changes to drafts.
Connections use Model Context Protocol, which allows supported AI tools to work with Lightbringer. Lightbringer also offers plugin for Claude and Claude Code with guided workflows for refining inventions, requesting patent preparation and responding to attorney reviews.
Much of today's legal AI focuses on helping attorneys work faster. For companies developing new technology, bigger opportunity is to make patent protection fit way they already work. Lightbringer brings invention capture and attorney collaboration into AI tools, with fixed pricing for managed patent services so companies can plan costs without counting billable hours.
“Making legal work more efficient should make life easier for the companies paying for it,” Davies said. “Builders should be able to work with patent attorneys in the tools they already use to develop new ideas, with clear costs from the start. That is what we are building with Lightbringer.”
