This connector brings IPRally's examiner-trained patent search into your conversation.\n\nSearch by AI similarity: describe an invention or give a publication number, and get the most similar patents ranked by relevance. Search by exact Boolean constraints for portfolio, landscape, and count questions. Retrieve full patent documents, including bibliography, claims, and specification, for deep review.\n\nTogether these cover the core patent workflows: prior-art and invalidity searches, novelty checks, freedom-to-operate reviews, and competitor and landscape analysis. The connector comes with built-in guidance for these workflows, so your assistant knows how to run each search.\n\nThe MCP requires an IPRally account.",
