A comprehensive patent search is a crucial first step in the patent process. It assesses whether your invention is genuinely novel and whether similar inventions have already been disclosed.

There are different types of searches, including novelty searches, freedom to operate searches, and validity searches. Each serves a specific purpose depending on your stage in the innovation cycle.
