DeepIP is a Franco-American legal AI company, headquartered in New York City and Paris, that builds an AI-powered patent platform for intellectual property professionals. The product spans the patent lifecycle: drafting and prosecution support, patentability assessments, freedom-to-operate and invalidity analysis, landscape and portfolio strategy, plus specialized tooling such as patent-drawing generation and invention-disclosure capture. Its design philosophy is to assist attorneys' judgment, automating repetitive tasks and enhancing accuracy while ensuring compliance with USPTO requirements rather than replacing the practitioner.
A defining feature of DeepIP is distribution: instead of forcing attorneys into a standalone web app, it embeds directly into their existing workflows through a Microsoft Word add-in (its primary integration), IP management systems (IPMS) and a web interface. The company highlights that meeting attorneys in Word, IPMS and the web delivers roughly 20% higher adoption and 40% higher usage than standalone platforms — a meaningful claim in a profession where workflow friction kills software rollouts. DeepIP also emphasizes enterprise-grade security, citing ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II and GDPR compliance along with a zero-data-retention posture for client confidentiality.
DeepIP was founded in 2024 by François-Xavier Leduc (CEO) and Edouard d'Archimbaud (CTO), the duo previously behind Kili Technology, with experience building secure AI for organizations like Airbus, IBM and SAP. The company reports being trusted by more than 400 leading IP law firms and corporate IP teams, including Greenberg Traurig, Philips, Dexcom and Mewburn Ellis, and says it grew revenue tenfold in the 18 months following its Series A.
On funding, DeepIP closed a $15 million Series A in early 2025 led by Resonance, with participation from Headline, Serena Capital and Balderton Capital. It followed with a $25 million Series B co-led by Korelya Capital and Serena, with Balderton and Headline also participating, bringing total capital raised to $40 million.
DeepIP sits in a competitive IP-AI field alongside Ankar, Patlytics and Solve Intelligence, but differentiates on deep workflow embedding — particularly its Word and IPMS integrations — and a security posture aimed squarely at large, confidentiality-sensitive IP practices.
