WIPS Patent Search

ipsearch@wips.co.kr / Please send your request to the email above! WIPS has over 500 professionals including patent attorneys, technology experts, and advisers covering all technology areas. WIPS currently has offices in the U.S., Korea, Japan, Singapore, and India. WIPS specializes in full-text Asian patent searching, both offline and online. WIPS conducts full-text patent searches in native home country languages, such as in Korean, Japanese, Chinese, etc. This is beneficial since our searchers know the keywords and synonyms unique to each country. Simply using the query from the US patent search is not sufficient for Asian patent searching. Our online worldwide patent search tool, WIPS Global, contains full-text Korean and Chinese patent searching. Full-text Japanese patent searching will be available in April of 2014. Our WIPS Global software is very accurate and reliable, since WIPS has over 40 software developers and Asian and European translators who frequently update WIPS Global. WIPS conducts PCT, trademark, and industrial design searches for KIPO. 98% of the prior art submitted by WIPS has been cited by KIPO Examiners. In 2013, WIPS had 62% of the online patent search market share in South Korea. WIPS currently provides online services for over 100,000 customers from 3,000 domestic and international companies.
