A new Open Data Portal (ODP) is coming soon! Developer Hub will continue to run in parallel with the new ODP through 2025. Thank you for your help in moving us out of beta. Learn more about the new Open Data Portal on data.uspto.gov.
USPTO Datasets
Protecting inventors and entrepreneurs fuels innovation and creativity, driving advances that can benefit society. As the federal agency that grants patents and registers trademarks, we hold a treasure trove of data. Now we’re giving it to you - faster and easier than before.
Contains four research datasets containing time series and micro-level data by National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) technology sub-category on applications, grants, and in-force patents spanning two centuries of innovation. For more information: https://www.uspto.gov/learning-and-resources/ip-policy/economic-research/research-datasets
The monthly file contains a monthly count of applications, issued patents, and in-force patents by application status, disposal type (abandoned, issued, or pending), and NBER sub-category from 1981 to 2015.
The monthly_disposal dataset contains counts of application by disposal type for each monthly application cohort by NBER sub-category from 1981 to 2015.
These historical statistics are data for requests for reexamination filed since 7/1/1981 (for ex parte) or since 11/29/1999 (for inter partes). They are updated weekly.
Contains (JAN 1976 - DEC 2001) the full text of each patent grant issued weekly (Tuesdays) (excludes images/drawings and reexaminations). The file format is Green Book, ASCII text and includes tables and "in-line" mathematical equations.
Contains the full text, images/drawings, and complex work units (tables, mathematical expressions, chemical structures, and genetic sequence data) of each patent grant (excludes reexaminations) issued weekly (Tuesdays) in CY2001. The file format is Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML) in accordance with the U.S. Patent Grant Version 2.4 Document Type Definition (DTD).
