A June 2026 Google application brings mixture-of-experts to streaming multilingual speech recognition. It's published — which is not the same as granted.
IP Strategy Brief
Two grants in under a year on the same agent technology. The strategic read: Anthropic is fencing the perception-action loop, defensively and offensively.
Claim Breakdown
A May 2026 Anthropic grant covers an agent that reads a screen and operates it. Reading the claim structure shows what the IP behind 'computer use' actually protects.
Whitespace Watch
Efficiency IP is piling up around routing and adaptive compute. Reading the cluster shows both the pile-ups and the thinner edges entrants are pushed toward.
Landscape Report
Multimodal AI rests on a cluster of vision-language grants spread across several assignees. Mapping it shows a shared mechanism and a contested field.
Just Issued
A February 2026 Microsoft grant decides how much computation an input deserves based on how surprising it is. Here's what actually issued.
Who Owns It
The architecture behind today's largest models traces to a single patent family. Reading it through PatentBear shows who holds the foundational claims — and it's one company.
Primer
If you want to find AI patents, you need the codes the patent office files them under. Three classifications carry most of the machine-learning estate.
Explainer
Half the AI-patent headlines you read blur a line that matters enormously. A granted patent and a published application are not the same legal thing.
Claim Breakdown
A 2025 Google grant automates part of RLHF by using search-engine signals as the reward. The claim sits in G06F, not G06N — and that's the interesting part.
