SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Manually searching and compiling structured Korean patent and utility model data from the official KIPRIS Plus portal is time-consuming and error-prone, especially when you need specific metadata like abstracts, applicants, or IPC classification codes for research, competitive analysis, or IP due diligence.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Keyword Search: Search Korean patents and utility models by keyword with optional filters for publication year, result type, and page size.
  • Detail Lookup: Retrieve full bibliographic metadata (including abstracts, applicants, registration status, and drawing links) for a specific patent via its application number.
  • Structured Output: All results are returned as clean, parsed JSON for easy integration into research workflows, spreadsheets, or analysis tools. For example, a startup founder can use this skill to pull all recent Korean patents filed by a competitor to identify their R&D focus areas.

Quick Start
