The Problem

The bottleneck nobody talks about

You have an idea worth pursuing, and before you can move on it, you need answers. Is it feasible? Is it new? Who else is working on it? Where is the market? Who would buy or license it?

Getting those answers the traditional way means hiring a search firm, running manual literature reviews, and spending $15,000 or more. It takes weeks. Sometimes months. And the results are often narrow, covering one domain and returning a handful of references.

Meanwhile, your competitors are filing. Your window is closing. And you are still waiting on a report.

Paseo answers every one of those questions in about 10 minutes. One input. Sixteen dimensions of analysis. A complete picture of where your idea stands, including where the open space is so you can plan your next move. Run it again on your second idea. And your third. Test ten ideas in the time one traditional search used to take.

Whether you are filing a patent, raising a round, planning a product, or deciding which idea to pursue first, Paseo gives you the answers you need to move forward with confidence.

How It Works

Three steps. Sixteen answers. Ten minutes.

edit_note
Step 01

Describe your idea

Type a plain-language description of your idea. A paragraph is enough. No special format, no keywords, no training.

query_stats
Step 02

Paseo runs the analysis

Paseo runs 16 dimensions of analysis across 220M+ patents and journal articles. Feasibility, novelty, market fit, competitive landscape, IP position, and more.

Step 03

Read your report and act

You get a structured report covering feasibility, novelty, competitive landscape, market fit, draft claims, and more. Direct links to relevant prior art. A clear uniqueness verdict. And a map of where the open space is, so you know exactly where to focus.

Features

Sixteen dimensions. One report.

science

Is your idea viable?

Feasibility Check

Flags ideas that violate physical laws or face fundamental technical barriers before you spend another dollar.

Feature Extraction

Pulls the core features of your invention from your description so you can verify nothing got missed.

Problem Analysis

Identifies the broader problems your invention addresses, so you can frame it correctly for investors, filings, or grant applications.

fingerprint

Is your idea actually new?

Novelty Analysis

Compares your description against the full USPTO patent database and ranks the most similar prior art by similarity score, with direct links to each patent.

Obviousness Scoring

Measures how "obvious" your idea would seem to a practitioner, both for single features and multi-feature combinations. High obviousness means your idea is too close to what already exists.

Journal Paper Analysis

Scans 200M+ academic abstracts and flags published research similar to your idea, organized concept by concept.

Uniqueness Verdict

A final, clear call: is your idea unique enough to pursue, or does it need rework?

map

Where do you stand in the market?

Competitive Landscaping

Lists companies already working on similar ideas. Potential competitors, collaborators, licensees, or acquisition targets.

Geographic Market Analysis

Identifies global regions where your product would likely find the strongest demand based on demographic and economic signals.

Technology & Industry Mapping

Surfaces industries and companies likely to license or acquire your IP.

rocket_launch

What do you do next?

Whitespace Mapping

A color-coded matrix showing which of your features and concepts are already covered and where the open space is. Use it to rapidly iterate your idea toward the areas where it can stand out, before you commit resources to building.

Draft Claims

Generates an initial set of patent claims based on your idea description. A concrete starting point for understanding what is protectable. Have an attorney review before filing.

CPC Classification

Maps your idea to the patent classification codes it falls under. Useful for understanding which technology domains your idea lives in and who the relevant players are.

Invention Disclosure Document

A structured first draft covering the idea description, its value, the problem it solves, current workarounds, and what your invention improves. Use it to brief an attorney, a co-founder, an investor, or a grant reviewer.

Potential Products & Services

Shows larger products or services that could use your invention as a component, broadening its commercial value.

FAQ

Common questions

No. Paseo gives you the intelligence to make better decisions faster, regardless of where you are in the process. If you are filing, it helps you and your attorney come to the table better prepared. If you are not filing yet, it tells you whether your idea is worth pursuing, where the open space is, and who the relevant players are. The decisions you make after reading the report are still yours.

About 10 minutes from the time you submit your idea description. The analysis runs across 220M+ patents and journal articles and covers 16 separate dimensions.

The full U.S. patent database at the USPTO, plus over 200 million academic journal article abstracts. Results include direct links to each relevant patent or publication.

That's actually useful information. The Prior Art Landscape shows you exactly which features and concepts are already covered and which are open. You can use that to refine your idea, identify white space, or decide to pivot before spending money on a filing that's likely to get rejected.

Yes. Paseo is SOC 2 Type I and Type II certified. Your data is encrypted, your account is isolated from all other users, and we never train our models on customer ideas. We also offer Zero Retention Mode, which deletes your analysis data on demand.

Solo inventors testing whether an idea is worth pursuing. Startup founders validating their core technology before raising capital. Patent attorneys accelerating pre-filing research and delivering faster client work. In-house IP counsel running patentability and FTO checks. R&D teams screening ideas before committing lab time and budget. University researchers and TTOs evaluating disclosures, strengthening grant proposals, and identifying licensing opportunities. If you have an idea and need a fast, complete picture of where it stands, Paseo is built for you.

Yes. Every report can be downloaded as a PDF. You can also export the underlying data tables (Similarity, Obviousness, Feature Landscape) as spreadsheets.

A traditional prior art search is manual, expensive, and narrow. It covers one domain, returns a handful of references, and gives you a vague opinion on whether your idea might be patentable. That is it. Paseo runs 16 dimensions of analysis on your idea: feasibility, feature extraction, problem framing, market geography, competitive landscape, technology mapping, novelty, obviousness, journal coverage, prior art landscape, draft claims, CPC classification, invention disclosure, potential products, uniqueness verdict, and a plain-language summary. You get a decisive verdict, not a maybe. The report shows you where the open space is, so you can plan your development roadmap before committing resources. And because it runs in minutes, you can test multiple ideas and iterate fast.
