What they do

Problem

Patent litigation and IP analysis relies on manual document review and disconnected tools that lack legal-grade trust, traceability, and auditability.

Solution

Stilta provides agentic AI software that performs source-backed, auditable search and analysis for intellectual property work, starting with patent litigation.

Who it's for

Leading IP law firms and in-house IP teams conducting patent enforcement or challenges.
