Overview

About

AI-Powered Design Patent Risk Alert System for Cross-Border E-Commerce. Upload a product image URL and intelligently compare it against a global database of over 190 million patents. The system automatically identifies design-feature similarities and provides tiered risk alerts for potentially high-risk infringements. Covering 171 countries and regions, including the United States, Europe, and Japan, this MCP server helps sellers proactively avoid TRO injunctions, listing removals, and store suspensions during the product selection stage. Even sellers with no legal or intellectual property background can easily perform IP compliance checks and reduce design patent risks before launching products internationally.

Capabilities

submit_workflow

Submit FTO workflow task — triggers the full pipeline (lineart conversion → search → rerank → RRF fusion → feature comparison → report generation) in one shot. Returns a task_id for polling via get_task_status and fetching results via get_stage_result

Arguments
countryarray

Country code list (optional), e.g. ["CN", "US", "EP"]

main_fieldstring

Text description or search keywords for the image (optional). Describe the product/form/usage in a sentence or keywords (e.g. 'wireless charger'). The system auto-parses it into search syntax. Not a LOC code

loc_itemsarray

LOC classification items (optional), each with id and desc

apply_end_timestring

Application end date (optional), format YYYYMMDD

apply_start_timestring

Application start date (optional), format YYYYMMDD

titlestring

Task title (optional)

simple_legal_statusstring

Simple legal status filter (optional), comma-separated (0=expired, 1=active, 2=pending). Defaults to '1,2' if not provided. Pass '0,1,2' to include expired patents

url* Requiredstring

Target product image URL (required)

get_task_status

Query workflow task status — returns lightweight task overview and per-stage summaries (status/duration/retry count/error message) without large result_data, suitable for high-frequency polling

/api/mcp/task/{task_id}/status

get_stage_result

Get execution result of a specific stage — returns the full business data (result_data) of a stage, which may be large. To get final results, typically use stage='feature_comparison' or 'generate_report'

/api/mcp/task/{task_id}/stage/{stage}/result

create_image_upload_url

Returns a temporary PUT upload URL. Upload the image binary to this URL using HTTP PUT, then pass the returned image URL to submit_workflow. This tool only creates the upload URL and does not accept image binaries or large base64 payloads.
