Phoenix Firm Launches Patent Research Tool

The new web based service allows researchers, attorneys, and corporations to download PDF versions of issued and published patents from The United States Patent and Trademark Office.

Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB via PR Web Direct) March 28, 2005 -- Phoenix-based Crystal Logic, a leading developer of advanced web applications, announces the immediate availability of PatentFly. The new web based service allows researchers, attorneys, and corporations to download PDF versions of issued and published patents from The United States Patent and Trademark Office.

"We interviewed a number of patent attorneys and researchers and found that they were wasting a lot of time accessing and downloading patents," said LaSean Smith, Crystal Logic Principal and Co-Founder. "The patent download process currently available through the USPTO is very cumbersome and difficult to manage. You have to download patents a single page at a time, and the provided TIFF file format is not as familiar to customers as the common Adobe Acrobat PDF format. Imagine going through this process for a handful of 50-page patents. We simplified the process and now any available USPTO patent can be downloaded as a PDF. With advanced features such as download queuing, document templates, and document merging the PatentFly service will be a welcome addition to anyone tasked with compiling or archiving patents. Extensive development resources have been focused on the usability of the service. An online service can have tons of great features, but it won’t be successful if it's not easy to use. As a result of our focus, usability has become a stand out feature of PatentFly. In addition, we've also provided multiple pricing options that will accommodate various customer needs."

With the launch of PatentFly, Crystal Logic continues to hold a leadership position in the web application market delivering compelling web-based applications that focus on usability and market-driven needs. There are plans to extend the PatentFly platform to other services.
