We've built https://agentgold.ai/chat, which is an interface to chat with youtube creators about their content.

It looks through past transcripts, topics, view counts, and other metadata so users can quickly learn what a Youtuber is all about.

Thanks for the comment. I'll definitely consider playing with the price and adding more general IP legal content that folks commonly have questions about.

I'd say the hardest part is writing a comprehensive patent. Defending it and amending the claims later down the road is easy if you have the base material to amend the claims with (i.e., material you wrote in your original patent).

Also, paying a top firm to write the patent is generally 50-70% of the cost of getting a patent allowed.

Litigation is a different matter entirely...

Perhaps you mean good luck getting a valuable software patent. You would be right - <5% of patents are used in litigation or licensing discussions. However, it oftentimes still makes sense to have a few patents if you're running a startup (I explain why in the free patent strategy course @ zerotopatent.com) without spending too much time or money getting them.

Regarding your larger point, I've written and prosecuted hundreds of patents, and 95%+ of them were allowed. And very few of these ideas are groundbreaking. It does speak to brokenness of the system, unfortunately, but these are the rules of the game until Congress changes the rules.

How does counter-picking work if it's no longer mirror match? Was this a separate model?
