Google Patents vs SI Patent Search: How to Use Both Together

Google Patents is a powerful free database, but a blank search box can be hard if you do not know the right terms. SI Patent Search helps you start.

What Google Patents does well

Full-text search across many countries, citations, drawings and classification codes, at no cost.

What SI Patent Search adds

At https://getquickpatent.com/search, you describe the idea in normal words. You get related concepts, keywords, likely CPC classes and ready-made Google Patents links ranked by estimated relevance.

A practical combined workflow

Run a Professional search (first one free), open the suggested links, read the closest documents, then refine with Advanced if you need broader analysis.

Transparent and affordable

No subscription: two Professional searches cost $12.99 and two Advanced searches $19.99.

GetQuickPatent provides preliminary SI research, not verified patent matches, an exhaustive prior-art search, a patentability opinion or legal advice. Review actual documents and consult a registered patent attorney or agent for legal questions.
