First run on sign-up · TRIZ method · File upload supported
Don't gamble on inspiration — follow a method. Describe your technical problem (or upload documents), and the tool applies TRIZ to decompose contradictions, match inventive principles, surface several directions worth pursuing, and triage which ones deserve your resources.
First run included on sign-up · 1 credit per run after · Multi-file upload supported
Already have a working solution? We'll help you systematically explore R&D directions you might have missed.
TRIZ turns "how to innovate" into steps you can follow
The team circles the same solution, tweaking at the margins. TRIZ inventive principles force you out of inertia and into angles you hadn't considered.
More strength means more weight; less power means less performance. These trade-off contradictions are exactly what TRIZ decomposes best.
A pile of ideas but no idea which deserves investment. The tool triages each direction for patentability: pursue, investigate, or decline.
Not slogan-level ideas — directions with decomposed contradictions and matched principles
Your problem translated into TRIZ language: the core contradiction and the parameter pair it's stuck on, so the problem itself becomes clear first.
Concrete breakthrough directions generated from the matched inventive principles, each with its rationale and a path to implementation.
Each direction gets a screening verdict — pursue, investigate, or decline — with reasons, helping you decide where to place your R&D bets.
Explain what you want to improve, where it's stuck, and what you've tried. Existing materials (technical docs, design notes) can be uploaded directly.
The tool decomposes the technical contradictions and matches inventive principles to generate multiple innovation directions.
Use the triage to pick directions worth investing in, then send one to R&D Explorer for deep research, or search prior art first.
TRIZ mining gives you innovation directions worth pursuing and a screening triage — not a ready-to-file patent. Directions must be validated and substantiated through real R&D; filing also requires a full search and review by a licensed patent attorney or agent. We do not and cannot promise grant.
Sign-up includes 1 run; after that each run costs 1 credit. New users also get 25 bonus credits.
TRIZ is an invention methodology distilled from large-scale patent analysis, centered on decomposing technical contradictions and applying inventive principles. You don't need to know TRIZ — state the problem clearly and the tool handles the method.
No. The output is R&D direction advice that you must validate and flesh out with real R&D. Before filing, run a full search and have a licensed agent draft and review.
Yes, multi-file upload is supported (technical docs, design notes, etc.). The more concrete the material, the closer the decomposition and mining fit your actual problem.
Your description and uploads are used only for this mining session. For highly confidential content, redact before uploading. Results are saved to your run history, where you can delete them at any time.
Once you pick a direction, send it to R&D Explorer in one click: search real patents and papers and turn the direction into an actionable R&D roadmap. Or run a patent search first to see how far others have gone.
Disclaimer
This tool provides TRIZ-based innovation direction mining and screening triage. It is not legal advice, a patentability conclusion, or a grant prediction. Directions must be validated through real R&D; decisions on filing should rest on the formal opinion of a qualified patent attorney or agent.
