A patent database is a collection of patent documents, including published patent applications and granted patents, that are searchable and organized in a way that allows users to retrieve and analyze patent information.
Patent databases typically contain a wide range of patent-related data, including:
1. Patent titles and abstracts
2. Patent descriptions and claims
3. Inventor and applicant information
4. Patent classification and categorization
5. Patent filing and grant dates
6. Patent status (e.g., pending, granted, expired)
