Comparison · OneTwelve vs DeepIP

OneTwelve vs DeepIP

DeepIP is a well-funded Microsoft Word add-in for drafting and prosecution. OneTwelve also works inside Word — and adds the portfolio, ownership and entity intelligence around every matter. Here is how the two compare, from DeepIP’s own public materials.

The difference

The broadest office action review, multi-agent at every step.

Every review below runs several AI analyses of the office action, the cited art and the claims — limitation by limitation — and a senior review reconciles them before anything reaches your document. Measured in our case study.

  • Reasonableness review

    Tests whether the examiner’s rejections hold up against the cited art and the claims.

  • Office-action strategy — quick or deep

    An instant take on the rejections, or a full claim-by-claim strategy with prior art tested limitation by limitation.

  • Enhanced §101 argumentation

    Dedicated subject-matter-eligibility analysis and arguments, not a generic rejection template.

  • Does the art teach the amendment?

    Tests whether prior art actually teaches a proposed amendment before you commit to it.

  • Response review before filing

    Finds defects and vulnerabilities in a finished response — like missing claim fees — before it goes out the door.

  • Grade past responses

    Grades responses already filed against the office action they answered — your own, outside counsel’s, or a competitor’s.

…and it learns from your practitioners.

OneTwelve structures your entire portfolio’s prosecution history — the amendments, arguments, claim strategies and drafting of your licensed practitioners — and puts it to work on the next matter, inside Microsoft Word, in the attorney’s own voice. Not one matter or one family at a time: the whole portfolio. And it generates complete provisional applications, with Visio diagrams, from an invention disclosure.

Of the five tools compared on this site, none states in its public materials that it offers all of these reviews — or that it learns from practitioners’ work product across an entire portfolio.

What DeepIP states

  • Breadth of office action review: PartialObjection ranking, suggested arguments and responses, plus an AI Reviewer for drafts; grading past responses not stated[2][10]
  • Learns from your practitioners’ work product, portfolio-wide: PartialDrafts described as based on successful past responses; consistency across the file history[5][6]

The core difference

Where each one starts.

DeepIP’s approach

A Word add-in across the patent lifecycle.

DeepIP describes an AI platform embedded in the Microsoft Word ribbon — drafting, prosecution, review, FTO and invalidity — that retrieves USPTO and EPO documents in one click and matches firm templates and tone.

OneTwelve’s approach

Portfolio-in, everything-out.

OneTwelve already knows your case record, your prior arguments, your ownership and assignment history, and your firm’s own prior language — and it works inside Microsoft Word, where prosecution already happens.

Side by side

Capability by capability.

Fair credit

Where DeepIP is strong.

A comparison is only useful if it is honest. From DeepIP’s own materials:

  • Works inside Microsoft Word across drafting, prosecution, review, FTO and invalidity.
  • Full application drafting from an invention disclosure, with drawings generation and template and tone matching.
  • One-click retrieval of USPTO and EPO prosecution documents, then objection ranking and suggested arguments.
  • Strong security claims — ISO 42001, ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II — and named customers including Philips and Greenberg Traurig.

Why architecture matters

A tool that only sees the document in front of it can draft competent language. A tool that sees your whole portfolio can tell you whether that language is consistent with what you’ve argued before, whether the entity you’re citing has a documented ownership history, and whether the claim you’re amending has already been contested elsewhere in your family.

That’s the difference between standard artificial intelligence and Institutional Intelligence.
