Third-Party Terms
Last updated November 11, 2026
AutoPat uses data, literature, and AI services from the third parties listed below. Some of these providers require PatentPlusAI Inc. to pass their terms through to customers. Where a provider’s terms apply to material it supplies, they apply to your use of that material through AutoPat, in addition to your agreement with PatentPlusAI (see the “Third-Party Materials” section of your agreement). Providers change their terms from time to time, and we update this page when we add or replace a provider.
