Patent Research: Capturing Web Prior Art and Product Pages
Prior art research wanders across forums, GitHub readme pages, old product sites, and PDFs hosted on the web. Links rot; companies rebrand.
Capture discipline
When a page could anticipate or teach the invention:
- Clip immediately
- Note the search query or concept it maps to
- Tag
prior-art / project-alpha
Not a replacement for counsel
Attorneys choose formal preservation for litigation. PageStash helps inventors and PMs build a searchable working archive during early research.
Tool fit
Full page + screenshot, search across clips, Page Graphs when many sources connect.
