Using InnoRate
Simply drag and drop your files into the upload area or click to browse. We support PDF, DOCX, and TXT formats up to 30MB. Our smart preprocessing ensures optimal text extraction and handles complex document structures including tables, diagrams, and technical drawings.
InnoRate conducts a comprehensive 360° analysis with specialized AI using a patent-pending synthetic reasoning framework that combines advanced NLP, machine learning, knowledge graph reasoining, and expert-designed verification rules. We evaluate technical feasibility by analyzing implementation details, resource requirements, and development timelines. Market potential is assessed through competitive analysis, market size estimation, and growth trajectory modeling. Our unique "Innovation Fingerprint" technology captures over 50 distinct innovation characteristics, from technical novelty to societal impact potential, creating a detailed innovation profile that helps identify optimal commercialization pathways.
We employ a multi-layered validation architecture that combines advanced NLP, machine learning, and expert-designed verification rules. Each analysis passes through three stages: First, our AI extracts and validates key technical claims. Then, our fact-checking system cross-references findings against a proprietary database of global innovations. Finally, our consensus mechanism aggregates results from multiple specialized models, each trained on domain-specific innovation data.
Our evaluation reports deliver actionable insights through eight comprehensive sections: 1) Executive Summary with key findings and recommendations, 2) Technical Analysis including feasibility assessment and development requirements, 3) Market Analysis with TAM/SAM calculations and growth projections, 4) Competitive Landscape mapping existing solutions and potential threats, 5) IP Strategy with protection recommendations and prior art analysis, 6) Commercialization Roadmap outlining key milestones and resource needs, 7) Risk Analysis covering technical, market, and execution risks, and 8) Strategic Recommendations prioritized by impact and feasibility.
Compliance & Security
InnoRate operates as an analytical tool that augments human expertise, not as an AI inventor or creator. All assessments are documented with clear human oversight and decision-making trails, maintaining compliance with current USPTO guidelines for AI-assisted processes.
Each institution operates in a dedicated data environment with complete logical separation. Our infrastructure maintains strict data segregation, with granular audit trails tracking all access and usage. We've implemented the same type of ethical walls common in legal and financial institutions.
We implement configurable retention policies that align with institutional requirements and legal obligations. All data handling follows NIST 800-171 control guidelines, and institutions maintain full control over their data lifecycle management.
Our permissions framework supports complex organizational structures including multi-institution collaborations and corporate sponsored research. Access controls can be configured to match sponsored research agreements and inter-institutional requirements.

Technical Support
We support PDF, DOCX, and TXT formats. Documents should be text-searchable and clearly structured for optimal analysis. Our system can handle various file formats through our extensible document processing pipeline.
We employ robust security measures including encryption, secure data handling, and tamper-evident features.
InnoRate works best with modern browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. Being a web-based platform, no special software installation is required.
For best results, ensure your documents are well-structured, text-searchable, and contain comprehensive information about your innovation. The more information you provide, the better the analysis will be. That said, even simple conference abstracts are sufficient for most analyses. A useful rule of thumb is to imagine domain expert. If there is enough context for a experienced domain expert to assess commercial potential, then there is enough for InnoRate.
