Patents and trademarks, in plain English
Every idea has a history. See yours before you build.
Describe your idea, or the name you love. Knowlia shows you what already exists around it, in plain English, in minutes.
We don’t track or log what you search. Your idea stays yours. Learn more
Over 100 million patents. Almost nobody reads them.
The record of human invention is free and public. It’s also written by lawyers, for lawyers. So founders build blind. They spend a year on an idea, then learn in a single email that someone filed it in 2014.
The expensive mistake isn’t being second. It’s finding out last.

Lawyers do the last look.
We make sure there’s a first one.
Big companies have legal teams who check before they build. Founders deserve the same sight, without the invoice.
A first look shouldn’t
cost a lawyer’s fee.
A basic attorney search usually costs £500 to £1,500. Yours starts at nothing.
