I'm ecstatic to share that ArcPrime has raised $5.1M 🎉 in combined seed and preseed funding, led by early Datadog-backer RTP Global and Rackhouse Venture Capital, with participation from Leonis Capital, Atria Ventures, and leaders from NVIDIA, Meta Superintelligence, Apple, and Braze.

When I was patent counsel at Meta and Fish & Richardson, I kept wondering why so few patents were used strategically. Everyone spent huge amounts on them, projecting $50B+ globally each year, but it wasn’t clear what they were for. The theory was clear — “make sure we have patents that read on others” — but no one had time to actually do it.

We’re incredibly lucky to live in a world where AI can change that. Even if AI progress stopped today, the tools we already have can dramatically increase the output and strategic leverage of patent counsel by identifying opportunities, surfacing risks, and making decisions that move the business forward.

Thank you to ALL of our customers, including several Fortune 500 companies, for trusting us and helping make this funding possible. We won’t let you down.

Now we're building tools to make patents strategically useful instead of just expensive.

If you are a builder who wants to modernize a centuries-old practice area using SOTA tech, we’re hiring!
