Odin Changelog

this page includes release notes and updates for odin app users use this page to keep track of upcoming changes, deprecation notices, new features, and feature updates from getfocus 29 january 2026 \[added] \[added] public release of agents beta agents beta is now available to all users, following a limited beta period for early testers agents beta introduces an agentic workflow that guides you from defining a technology question to generating actionable insights—combining conversational input with automated scouting, patent landscaping, llm filtering and comparison charts, and saving a significant amount of time the agent helps translate your intent into a clear problem statement, automates technology scouting and patent landscaping, and keeps you in control through review and approval checkpoints at every step once processing is complete, you can chat with , edit, and export your dataset just like any other project in odin \[added] \[added] feature packages strategic and research we’ve introduced two feature packages, strategic and research , to better align the platform experience with different user needs the research package focuses on patent data and landscaping workflows, while excluding the features related to technology improvement rates ( tir, cycle time, knowledge flow charts) as well as agents the strategic package continues to include full access to all features, including tir related charts and agents existing users are migrated to strategic package, and new users are placed on the research package by default, with package access managed by getfocus admins to ensure each user sees the features most relevant to their work \[ \[ changed changed ] ] enhanced search and llm filtering logic in agents beta limited context in search terms and llm filters can lead to fewer or less relevant patents being retrieved with this update, search terms and llm filters leverage even richer context than the previous version to further improve patent relevance search queries now use the exact technology description from the scouting step combined with the application context derived from the problem statement, while llm filters have been refined to be more consistent with getfocus prompting https //docs getfocus eu/prompting like a pro#undefined llm filter that workundefined \[ \[ changed changed ] ] technology (de)selections now persist in agents beta previously, when users deselected technologies in a scouted list, those selections were lost when asking a follow up question in the scouting step or when navigating back from the landscaping step the list would reappear with all technologies re selected, forcing users to redo their work with this update, the final state of technology selections is now preserved when the same scouted list is returned, it reflects the user’s previous selections if a new scouted list is generated, all technologies will continue to be pre selected by default \[ \[ changed changed ] ] lhs navbar now collapses automatically in agents beta previously, the side navigation remained expanded when entering agents , which could feel cramped on smaller screens and reduced available workspace for agentic workflows with this update, the left hand side navigation bar automatically collapses when users enter agents , providing more screen space and a more focused experience users can still expand the bar \[fixed] \[fixed] data point tooltips being obscured by chart controls previously, when working with large datasets, hovering over chart lines to view data point values could result in the tooltip being partially covered by the select charts control this has been fixed, and data point tooltips are now displayed in the foremost layer, ensuring values are fully visible and easy to read during chart interactions \[fixed] \[fixed] incorrect pagination in country of origin chart dropdowns previously, the cycle time and knowledge flow dropdowns in the country of origin chart displayed top n 1 countries instead of the expected top n this has been fixed, and the dropdowns now correctly show the top n countries as intended \[fixed] \[fixed] unable to approve problem statement in agents beta previously, the confirm button could fail to appear in the problem statement step of agents beta, sometimes occurring randomly and more frequently when users edited messages before the problem statement output or attempted to edit the problem statement while it was still streaming this could block users from approving the problem statement without refreshing the page, and now has been fixed \[fixed] \[fixed] chat responses in agents beta hanging indefinitely previously, the agents chat would occasionally get stuck showing a blinking cursor with no response, requiring users to refresh and re submit their initial input to recover the output this has been fixed, and chat outputs in agents beta now reliably complete and return responses without hanging \[fixed] \[fixed] buttons now prevent duplicate actions during processing previously, some buttons across odin did not show loading or disabled states while actions were processing this allowed multiple rapid clicks, which could lead to unintended duplicate actions (such as creating multiple copies, submitting the same request multiple times, or triggering inconsistent ui behavior) this has been fixed by adding proper loading and disabled states to key actions across the app buttons now clearly indicate when an action is in progress, block repeated clicks until completion, and re enable correctly once the action finishes 26 january 2026 \[fixed] \[fixed] l andscaping caused errors when a folder was deleted during processing in agents beta previously, if a user deleted an agentic workflow folder while landscaping was still processing, the job would continue running on the backend and result in errors or inconsistent states this has been fixed, and landscaping jobs are now properly stopped and cleaned up when a folder is deleted, preventing backend errors and ensuring a more reliable experience 21 january 2026 \[fixed] \[fixed] a gentic search (in search and agents) resulted in critical errors when no negative examples where found in the labelling process the search process involves an llm labelling families positive/negative for the given search query in some (rare) cases the llm does not classify any patents negative (all positive) in another edge case, the llm found only one positive label both resulted in critical errors these edge cases have now been covered and gracefully handled so the search process can continue \[fixed] \[fixed] s earching through files and folders was "buggy" when searching through files and folders, the ui was sometimes "flickering" on keystrokes also clicking into matched folders resulted in redirects to the root folder instead of the target folder this has now been fixed \[fixed] \[fixed] t he results in the left hand side folder navigation panel are not always sorted alphabetically the folders in the left hand side folder navigation panel were sometimes sorted based on created time rather than the intended alphabetical order we debugged the underlying issue and fixed it \[fixed] \[fixed] error message appearing while navigating through projects and moving projects saying "error fetching subfolders no data" occasionally this error messages popped up the root cause has been identified and fixed \[fixed] \[fixed] v alues while hovering over linecharts are not ordered by their value we added ordering by value of multi line charts to make the charts more readible \[fixed] \[fixed] s earch and llm filter tasks originating from agents were occasionally "stuck" in a queued or processing state we have made some improvements to ensure the stability of the queued tasks such that they will not get stuck anymore 5 january 2026 \[added] \[added] explicit queuing states for llm filters in agents beta previously, llm filters did not clearly communicate when they were queued, initializing, or processing, which could make it unclear whether a filter was actively progressing or stalled llm filters now show explicit loading states, providing better visibility into filter progress and improving overall transparency \[added] \[added] improved agents beta messaging and guidance agents beta now includes detailed loading states for each agentic step, showing exactly what the agent is doing at any given moment we’ve also added a help center link directly in the placeholder for easier access to guidance, along with informative messages inside advanced settings to clarify available options and behaviors for search terms and llm filters \[added] \[added] automatic generation of comparison dashboards in agents beta previously, users had to manually create comparisons, adding extra steps to the agents workflow agents beta can now automatically generate comparison dashboards per folder, allowing users to review and analyze results immediately without additional setup \[ \[ changed changed ] ] improved patent retrieval and relevance in agents beta previously, search terms and llm filters in agents beta used limited context from the problem statement, which could result in fewer retrieved patents or less relevant results, especially for smaller datasets with this update, search terms and llm filters now incorporate more context from the problem statement to improve relevance in addition, datasets smaller than 1k patents are handled differently to retrieve a broader initial set of patents, which are then llm filtered using the problem statement context, resulting in higher patent counts and more relevant results overall \[ \[ changed changed ] ] clearer error message for “not enough labels” in agents beta previously, when a user ran into a “not enough labels” issue, a vague error message was displayed and made it difficult for the user to understand what went wrong or how to resolve it with this update, agents beta now displays a descriptive error message that explains the issue, helping users quickly identify what went wrong \[fixed] \[fixed] errors when saving comparisons with long file names previously, creating or saving a comparison with a very long name could result in an error even after shortening the name, the update was not reflected in the backend request, preventing the save from succeeding this has been fixed, and updated file names are now correctly applied and saved without errors \[fixed] \[fixed] edit button in problem statement modal not opening the text area in agents beta previously, clicking the edit problem statement button from the problem statement stepper would scroll to the text area in the chat but would not open it for editing the button now both scrolls to the correct location and opens the text area, allowing users to edit the problem statement smoothly \[fixed] \[fixed] retry button not responding in the folder content area in agents beta previously, the retry button shown on datasets in the folder content area did not respond, forcing users to open the dataset itself to retry an llm filter this has been fixed, and users can now retry llm filters directly from the folder content area \[fixed] \[fixed] chat with set/invention state management issues previously, streaming chat responses would stop when users navigated away from the active chat, limiting the ability to multitask across conversations chat streaming now continues running in the background, allowing users to switch between multiple screens while chat responses continue processing \[fixed] \[fixed] incorrect processing messages for llm filters on large datasets previously, datasets larger than 10k patents would still display messages such as “processing the first 5k patents,” disregarding the recent limit increase dedicated and accurate status messages are now shown in the dataset view for processing llm filters on datasets larger than 10k patents 18 december 2025 \[fixed] \[fixed] previously created odin agents (beta only) getting "stuck" in scouting flow all created odin agents before the 17th december release would get "stuck" in scouting, and would never proceed to the next step this issue has been scoped and fixed \[fixed] \[fixed] t he link in the email when an odin agent (beta only) completes redirected users to the search page instead of the project the email that we send to inform you about an odin agent being done preparing your landscape includes a button that redirected to the general search page instead of the project folder the odin agent created this is now fixed \[fixed] \[fixed] w hen creating an llm filter we warned you that it will only consider the first 5 000 results, while in reality it was considering the first 10 000 results llm filters can only process a limited amount of patents this limit used to be 5 000 with the 17 december release, we increased this limit to 10 000, but the warning message did not reflect that this is now fixed \[fixed] \[fixed] odin agent (beta only) problem statement stepper improvements clicking "edit statement in chat" through the problem statement stepper would scroll to the problem statement text area but not open it this is now fixed problem statement would not be properly formatted in the edit modal accessed through the stepper this is now fixed \[fixed] \[fixed] s how a "queued" state to the llm filters in order to handle the requests introduced by the release of odin agents (beta only), we need to queue llm filter requests to handle the load queued requests will be picked up as soon as there are resources available to handle the request for this we now added a state to reflect this to the user 17 december 2025 \[added] \[added] introducing odin agents part 2 (beta users only) with this release, we introduce the second step of the odin agentic workflows, the technology landscaping agentic workflow, to a select group of early access users the technology landscaping agent would create patent search terms and llm filters based on the job to be done inferred from the problem statement, as well as the selected technology automatically create patent datasets that are broad enough to include indirect or early stage innovations, yet anchored enough to remain within the meaningful technological orbit of your problem automatically apply llm filters and organize the patent datasets under folders determined by the technology groups from the previous scouting step support advanced settings and comparisons, allowing you to adjust the search terms and llm filters, as well as create charts to compare the datasets \[added] \[added] "select all" in comparison selection previously, dataset selection for comparisons could only be done one dataset at a time, which made it clunky now you can select all datasets in a folder at once using the “select all” button \[added] \[added] quick dataset duplication from the dataset view previously, dataset duplication was only available from the project folders area, which was unintuitive and slowed workflows when users wanted to experiment with variations without overwriting the original dataset now you can duplicate a dataset directly from the dataset view using the action menu (three dots), without navigating back to your folders \[ \[ changed changed ] ] llm filters can now process up to 10k patents previously, llm filters would only be applied to the first five thousand patents in a dataset, occasionally causing users to split their datasets, apply llm filters separately, and then merge the llm filtered datasets in order to analyze them together with this update, we are increasing the llm filter limit to ten thousand patents, allowing for fewer manual workarounds \[fixed] \[fixed] folder list not being scrollable in the save dialog previously, the folder list in the save dialog could not be scrolled, making it impossible to view or select folders beyond those initially visible this has now been fixed, and the folder list is fully scrollable so all folders can be accessed \[fixed] \[fixed] not being able to create nested folders while saving chats previously, creating a nested folder when saving a chat with invention would fail, redirecting users back to the root folder and preventing the chat from being saved in the intended location this issue has been fixed, and chats can now be saved correctly within nested folders \[fixed] \[fixed] status filter counts not updating after applying other filters previously, the status filter counts in patent datasets did not update after applying filters and continued to reflect the unfiltered dataset this has been fixed, and status counts recalculate based on the patent family count in the filtered dataset 28 november 2025 \[fixed] \[fixed] incorrect reporting of family status users have reported incorrect family statuses (e g pending where inactive was expected) this frequently happened for families having very old members users have reported an increased amount of unknown family statuses we have throughly reviewed how we compute the family status we included a condition such that families where all members are older than 25 years old, are per definition considered inactive (even though the reported status from our data provider does indicate that the patent is pending) \[fixed] \[fixed] "server error" in agents beta in safari and firefox browsers users have reported a "server error" in agentic workflows when using non chromium browsers this has been resolved now \[fixed] \[fixed] saving an item by "double clicking", would save the item twice users have reported that if they (accidentally) click "save" multiple times, the iterms are also saved multiple times we released a patch that prevents this from happening by blocking the user to save another time while we are processing the request 25 november 2025 \[fixed] \[fixed] missing references in chat with invention chat with invention would occasionally not include a references section at the end of its response, which has now been fixed \[fixed] \[fixed] hallucinated responses in chat with invention chat with invention would hallucinate rather than not answer when the information requested by the user was not available in the patent (e g , a table inside the patent uploaded as an image) it now warns the user that it cannot access this information and does not attempt to answer the question \[fixed] \[fixed] tracking workflows making use of an llm agent of summarize patents step would silently fail users have reported issues with trackers that included an llm agent and summarize patents step the trackers would silently fail we have debugged the issues and resolved them also we have taken additional measures to avoid such errors in the future 22 november 2025 \[fixed] \[fixed] error in chat with set chat with set would error out or remain stuck in conversations with large datasets this was due to reaching compute constraints we have increased our compute resources, resolving this issue \[fixed] \[fixed] chat with invention only on representative patent chat with invention would only chat with the representative patent regardless which member of tha patent family has been selected by the user this bug has now been resolved making it possible to chat with the selected members \[fixed] \[fixed] clicking on publication number hyperlinks in chat would break parts of the ui when clicking on a publication number hyperlink returned in a chat conversation, it sometimes happened that the ui would freeze and no new chats could be started unless you refreshed the page this has now been resolved \[fixed] \[fixed] missing folders or content in projects when there exist a lot of items users reported missing content in their folders when having a lot of items in one folder we debugged the issue and resolved it users should be able to see all stored folder content again \[fixed] \[fixed] automatic generation of titles in agents beta would sometimes fail when starting an agentic workflow, we automatically generate a title for that conversation this title generation would occasionally fail we debugged this issue, and resolved it \[fixed] \[fixed] llm filters would occasionally get stuck after releasing new infrastructural changes to make the llm filters more scalable, we have observed more issues with llm filters getting stuck in a processing state we have debugged the issues and released a patch for this 20 november 2025 \[fixed] \[fixed] error in chat with set chat with set would error out or remain stuck in conversations with large datasets this was due an error in the data reduction agent, which has now been fixed \[fixed] \[fixed] tir forecast input form in dataset "overview" and comparison pages fixed the non responsive input form on tir forecast graph in the datasetet "overview" tab and the comparisons page changes to the cost, performance and rate inputs for the technologies and segments now correctly produce changes to the graph data 19 november 2025 \[added] \[added] introducing odin agents part 1 (beta users only) with this release, we introduce the first step of the odin agentic workflows, the scoping & scouting agentic workflow, to a select group of early access users the scoping & scouting agents would enable interactive conversations, so the system can understand your goals, constraints and context with minimal effort automatically translate your requirements into a well defined problem statement suitable for technology discovery generating structured, easy to understand technology checklists highlighting the most relevant emerging and established solutions support iterative exploration, allowing you to adjust assumptions or refine the problem and immediately see how the list of potential technologies changes \[ \[ changed changed ] ] infrastructure and stability improvements to file exports, llm filters and tracking workflows we have upgraded the backend infrastructure and code that powers long running, automated and/or compute intensive features like tracking and llm filters the changes aim to improve the stability, scalability and resilience of these services 24 october 2025 \[added] \[added] test button to verify sso setup you can now test whether your sso configuration is working correctly before enabling it company wide this allows administrators to confirm setup success in advance \[added] \[added] improved references in chat with invention chat with invention now includes references to the specific paragraphs or sections of the patent used in generating an answer this makes it clear which parts of the document the ai relied on \[added] \[added] improved breadcrumb behavior in projects we’ve enhanced breadcrumb handling for deeply nested folders the navigation now avoids ui overflow and maintains better readability \[fixed] \[fixed] chat with set returning no results despite available patents resolved an issue where chat with set incorrectly reported that no patents were found it now properly identifies and retrieves patents from the selected dataset \[fixed] \[fixed] regenerate button duplicating messages fixed an issue where regenerating responses in chat with invention/set/insight caused duplicate messages to appear in the conversation history \[fixed] \[fixed] incorrect family member opening fixed an issue where opening a saved family sometimes opened a different family member (from the same family) than intended \[fixed] \[fixed] chat with insight creating new chat sessions resolved a bug where chat with insight started a new chat for every input instead of continuing the conversation in the same thread \[fixed] \[fixed] ad blockers and corporate security conflicts fixed an issue where certain ad blockers or corporate security measures occasionally disrupted the application interface 13 october 2025 \[added] \[added] support for idle session timeout you can now request a configurable inactivity timeout mechanism that logs users out automatically after a set period (e g 30 minutes) of inactivity \[added] \[added] disclaimers for chat features without patent data access chat features that do not have access to patent data now include disclaimers the ai will explicitly indicate that it cannot access patent data and advise users to use the search tab to find specific patent information \[ \[ changed changed ] ] branding update #1 this release introduces the new getfocus logo and updated typography in odin, aligning the service with our new brand and styling \[ \[ changed changed ] ] chat with invention always quotes references from patents we have updated the llm instruction for chat with invention to always respond with reference quotes from within the patent text, giving you more confidence and visibility into the llms reasoning \[ \[ changed changed ] ] breadcrumbs display the last couple folders the breadcrumbs display to make it easier to go back to the previous step instead of only visualising the first and last folder, the new breadcrumbs display the last 2 folders making it easier to trace your steps back \[fixed] \[fixed] bug fixes dynamically switching between chat with set and chat with invention conversations when inside a 'chat with set' window, clicking on a referenced patent (from the results) correctly shows that invention, but further initiating a new chat with invention, conversation would keep you inside the chat with set conversation this bug would cause chat with invention conversations to return blank results and navigating to a different patent or chat with invention would further break the breadcrumbs this release makes the dynamic switching between different types of "chat with" conversations is more stable 29 september 2025 \[added] \[added] new saml sso setup & it admin role we’ve introduced a brand new saml 2 0 single sign on (sso) setup flow in odin, making it easier and more secure to connect your organization’s identity provider highlights new sso configuration wizard with clear our config and your config steps support for idp metadata xml or manual entry of sso url and issuer signing certificate upload for explicit trust selection new it admin role with access to sso setup only which does not count towards seat usage 22 september 2025 \[added] \[added] new patent trends charts we have added 2 new patent trends charts, namely a line chart variant of the overall patent trend overall patent trend (technology) and a new overall patent trend per country of origin overall patent trend per country of origin (country of origin) chart, both of these represent a breakdown of the total number of patent families per publication year the overall patent trend overall patent trend chart now also appears in the list of comparison charts, allowing you to compare the trends between datasets \[added] \[added] feature flags introducing feature flagging via amplitude, this enables us to conduct safer experimentation, run targeted a/b testing and controll rollouts before full deployment \[fixed] \[fixed] bug fixes with comparisons and expanded patent family card datasets with the same name would combined into the same line in a comparison graph, this has now been fixed and comparison charts correctly visualize datasets with the same name the expanded patent family card now correctly displays the applicant applicant field, which earlier would often show up as "unknown" even though the compressed patent family card displayed the applicant applicant \[fixed] \[fixed] bug fixes and changes with project management changed the default view of the new folders navigation panel and the folder contents to be sorted alphabetically instead of chronologically fixed bug with the contents of the folder navigation panel not updating until refresh after moving/duplicating a folder, while also making the folder navigation panel resizable the save button now correctly displays on a new chat once it is ready, without needing to refresh the page fixed bug with renaming datasets from the projects page fixed bug with opening saved patent families from the "recent files" section fixed bug with generation of long chat titles and references to patents from within chat with set conversations made the "share" pop up consistent when sharing directly from the folder navigation panel vs when sharing from the folder contents panel miscellaneous minor improvements and bug fixes related to charts 1 september 2025 \[changed] \[changed] navigation bar redesign we moved the navigation to the left to create a cleaner layout and improve usability with the sidebar always visible (and collapsible), it’s easier to switch between key sections without losing focus on your work \[added] \[added] new "projects" page we designed the new projects page to make it easier to stay organized and productive by combining a clear index with a detailed view, you can explore projects more intuitively, switch context faster, and work without losing your place the projects page now gives you a desktop style experience for browsing and managing your work you can use the folder navigation panel to navigate projects easily open projects in the folder content panel to see folder contents, metadata like created dates and file counts, and take actions such as compare and create folder quickly jump back into work with the new recent files section at the top of the detail view \[added] \[added] save more insights introducing the ability to “save” more insights and interactions directly from the ui, so you can bookmark and organize all your work the complete list of "savable" entities now includes chats chat with sets sets comparisons patent families chat with inventions saved chat with sets , chat with inventions and patent families , are grouped directly under the dataset you can open them by clicking the blue “x insights” link in the dataset’s metadata row hovering over the dataset row and selecting the show insights button that appears this grouping keeps datasets and their insights together, so you can quickly review findings in the context of the underlying patents \[added] \[added] navigable breadcrumbs breadcrumbs are now shown in more places across the workspace, including projects detail view saved comparisons saved datasets they provide a clear path of where you are and can be clicked to jump back to any folder quickly , making navigation across complex project structures much smoother \[changed] \[changed] dataset page header redesign the new design centralizes key actions, improves visibility, and creates a cleaner layout so you can act on datasets with fewer clicks actions such as compare dataset, chat with set, export, and save are now grouped together in a consistent row above the dataset navigation tabs (families, overview, tracking) are cleaner and more prominent \[added] \[added] new "compare datasets" pop up introducing a brand new compare modal for selecting and comparing datasets browse datasets in a split view with the project tree on the left and dataset details on the right while seeing important context like number of families, filters applied, insights, created date select one or more datasets and launch comparisons seamlessly \[added] \[added] persistent chat history we now also persist all chat with set and chat with invention conversations, including unsaved converations you can search or browse past chats and bookmark them to revisit them later \[added] \[added] llm filter enhancements the filters embedded with the llm filter during creation can also be viewed when an llm filter is applied llm filters were also sped up 4x from 2 patents/sec to 8 patents/sec \[added] \[added] search suggestions we’ve introduced search as you type suggestions to the search bar for all of the new search types this includes both autocomplete suggestions as well as suggestions from your search history \[fixed] \[fixed] many miscellaneous bug fixes improved accuracy of orgnisation search results which previously also inlcuded near matches eg "tubel" woud also match "tubes" which would not happen anymore improved accuracy of the patent assignee/organisation field tech maturity graph no longer displays data incorrectly as a % exporting of large dataset would hang indefinitely or error out, this is now fixed and the system is now equipped to deal with large exports better searching a large list of publication numbers is much more performant and less prone to errors reduced hallucinations and improved consistency in the llm filtering results counts in the filters did not always match the counts presented in the graphs publication number search can now search on more (20 000 publication numbers) if the publication number does not include a kind code previously this limit of 20 000 publication numbers could only be achieved if the kind code was included in the publication numbers fixed the problem where the chat would unintentionally trigger scouting for emerging technologies \[added] \[added] filtering on country of origin we now support filtering the dataset on the country of origin we support filtering on country of origin of the patent's organization as well as the patent's ultimate owner the country of origin filters can be found under the "advanced filters" \[added] \[added] graphs for country of origin to dashboard we added graphs to visualize the distribution of the country of origin statistics in the dashboard we added the following graphs families, per country of origin this chart shows the distribution of patent families across different countries of origin each bar or slice represents the number of patent families owned by companies headquartered in that country improvement rate, per country of origin this chart shows the average yearly improvement rate segmented by country of origin the improvement rate reflects how quickly a technology improves in terms of performance per cost, and is based on the cycle time (speed of iteration) and knowledge flow (impact of those iterations) cycle time, per country of origin this chart shows the average cycle time segmented by country of origin cycle time measures how quickly new generations of a technology appear, with shorter times indicating faster iteration knowledge flow, per country of origin this chart shows the average knowledge flow segmented by country of origin knowledge flow reflects how impactful new inventions are, measured by how often they are cited by later inventions in the first three years after publication \[removed] \[removed] graphs about organization quality we have removed the following graphs from the dashboard improvement rate, per organization cycle time, per organization knowledge flow, per organization 5 may 2025 \[removed] \[removed] unused predefined questions we have removed and merged some of the predefined questions inside the chat functionality the following predefined questions have been removed from the predefined questions technology comparison removed completely from the list emerging technology scouting baked into the technology scouting technology summary merged into follow up questions \[added] \[added] suggesting follow up questions in chat in the chat, we now generate follow up questions to help you through some predefined steps for example technology scouting scout for technologies within a technological field (optional) evaluate for application area requires you to provide an application area as input to evaluate the scouted technologies for (optional) summarize technologies will summarize the scouted technologies in the chat, we let an llm generate follow up questions to help you explore and learn more about specific technologies \[added] \[added] support for reasoning models throughout the application, we added the support for reasoning models reasoning models are better at complex tasks and are generally more accurate at the expense of speed we have added a button to control whether to use the reasoning model reasoning models are available at the following places chat chat with invention chat with insight the reasoning model used is https //platform openai com/docs/models/o3 \[ \[ changed changed ] ] updated chat models throughout the application we have been upgrading the llm models (non reasoning) used to align best with their use case chat https //platform openai com/docs/models/gpt 4 1 chat with invention https //platform openai com/docs/models/gpt 4 1 mini chat with insight https //platform openai com/docs/models/gpt 4 1 mini chat with set https //platform openai com/docs/models/gpt 4 1 mini ai summary https //platform openai com/docs/models/gpt 4 1 mini llm filtering https //platform openai com/docs/models/gpt 4 1 mini agentic search https //platform openai com/docs/models/gpt 4 1 mini smart search https //platform openai com/docs/models/gpt 4 1 mini all of the models have been configured to optimally use their context window this means that all models use their maximum output token limit to ensure that long responses can be streamed to you we have made significant efforts to mitigate and reduce the halucinations that have been reported in chat with set \[fixed] \[fixed] publication search not able to find existing publication number recently a bug was introduced that caused publication search to not be able to find publication numbers that exits this was fixed \[fixed] \[fixed] timeouts where data was accessed by publication number recently a bug was introduced that caused timeouts on endpoints accessing large lists of publication numbers for example in publication search publication number filter listing publications inside the chat with set screen \[fixed] \[fixed] organizations and ultimate owners in the family card were not matching those in the filters in some cases, it happened that the organizations and ultimate onwers that were shown in the family card were not shown inside the filters this is fixed now 23 april 2025 \[added] \[added] introducing the new 'agentic search' a new ai agent driven technology search type agentic search deploys an ai agent that interprets your query, explores related patents, reads through them, and learns what’s truly relevant — all to deliver better, more precise results the ai agent also tunes and picks the best similarity threshold for your query to ensure that what you see is more accurate unlike the static threshold value for the legacy smart search and exact search types you can find the new and old search types by clicking on the menu option and enabling the advanced search settings \[added] \[added] step by step progress view for patent discovery we’ve introduced a new progress tracker that shows you exactly how the system finds patents for your search you’ll now see a step by step breakdown of how your input is interpreted, how patents are explored, and how the most relevant results are selected — all in real time this new view gives you more transparency, more control, and clearer insight into how results are being generated \[changed] \[changed] updated ui/ux of the search and search history pages the search page now has a new updated look with quality of life changes \[added] \[added] applicant field to patent family cards we have added a new property applicant propterty to the patent family card \[fixed] \[fixed] bugs with various chat components if you initiate a chat with publication , close it before/while it's streaming and initiate a new chat with publication the chat window would stream the response from the first chat window this has now been fixed we have fixed the "retry" action for the first chat with insight message \[fixed] \[fixed] bugs with exporting datasets fixed the bug where the export button in a dataset would get stuck in the processing state or be unresponsive to clicks the exported file would have missing data in a few columns now all columns will have appropriate data points \[fixed] \[fixed] bugs with publication number search searching with certain publication number formats would cause the system to match millions of patents incorrectly the system now handles unknown publicaiton number formats better \[fixed] \[fixed] empty tracking emails or misformated tracking emails tracking workflows would send out empty emails daily due to errors arising in the automated processing of the workflows now, the system would handle these errors gracefully and will not send out empty notifications formatting of some tracking workflow emails has been fixed \[fixed] \[fixed] minor bugs with datasets and insights clicking the "thumbs down" icon on a patent family card would not actually remove it from the returned result, the application now ensures that downvoted patents do not show up in the list insight would show multiple year graphs even when the publication date range filter would be set to a single year the insights now show a dynamically scaled time axis that is more considerate of the filters 1 april 2025 \[changed] \[changed] updated ui/ux for the filters we've updated the filter section of the dataset to make it more intuitive and user friendly wider layout the filter panel is now wider, improving readability and making it easier to craft and manage your filters simplified selection it's now more intuitive to find, select, and deselect organizations (e g , in the organization or ultimate owner filters), making it easier to build the dataset you need streamlined design less frequently used filters have been moved into a new “advanced filters” section, giving more focus to the most common ones \[fixed] \[fixed] bugfixes related to llm filtering we've resolved several issues to make working with llm filters more reliable and consistent flickering progress states fixed an issue where the progress indicator for llm filters would occasionally flicker incorrect filter display resolved a bug where llm filters from a different dataset could briefly appear ui polishing made various small visual and styling improvements to ensure a smoother experience overall 24 march 2025 \[notice] \[notice] unsaved sets older than 1 month will now be deleted periodically we introduced an automated process that checks for and deletes any unsaved sets that are older than a month every night outside business hours \[added] \[added] 'llm filtering' let our ai agent search for patents matching your custom search instruction the llm filtering feature allows you to instruct an llm powered assistant to filter the patent families in your dataset based on any condition for example, you can instruct the assistant to " search for all patents that relate to cryogenic carbon capture " and the assistant will then evaluate every patent from your dataset one by one to check if it's relevant per your instruction at the time of release llm filtering allows you to queue 1 filtering task per dataset and a total of 3 filtering tasks across all datasets combined \[added] \[added] get help from one of getfocus' analysts directly in odin we have added a chat feature that allows you to connect with one of our analysts our analysts are available to assist you with any questions you may have you can find the chat option at the top right corner of the screen, next to the menu \[fixed] \[fixed] view range interaction on organisation size and organisation quality graphs the charts years range selection would incorrectly behave as an additional publication year filter for the graphs inside the organization size and organization quality categories this has now been fix such that the "view range" selection only affects the axis boundaries for temporal graphs \[fixed] \[fixed] the similarity histogram now correctly displays the total number of patent families for each similarity score previously, the histogram in the right hand side filters showed the count of patent families per individual similarity score however, it should have displayed the cumulative total of patent families up to (and including) that score this issue has now been resolved \[fixed] \[fixed] performance issues for comparison graphs the tooltips in the comparison graphs were lagging in some cases this has now been resolved
