At GreyB Analytics, I use patent data to answer business questions for global corporates and law firms, from how portfolios compare with competitors to what a patent claims. I check for data pitfalls such as family counting, ownership, legal status, and classification before findings reach clients.
As Team Lead, Prior Art Research, I lead four analysts, review search strategies and reports, and train the team on search logic, claim interpretation, and evidence standards. I also run worldwide FTO searches and patent landscapes, mapping product features to live claims and tracking competitor activity.
I built custom GPTs and AI agents across the patent workflow and tested their outputs against expert results, tracing reasoning failures and refining prompts and steps. I also found prior art that helped an oil and gas client avoid an infringement lawsuit, and explain findings to senior, non-specialist audiences in plain language.
