6G Patent Claims Auto-Translator

2.65

Derivation Chain

Step 1 ETRI's 6G technology advances to the global stage
→
Step 2 Intensifying international patent filing competition for 6G
→
Step 3 Multilingual patent claims translation demand for 6G patent filings

Problem

As Korean research institutions like ETRI and telecom carriers ramp up 6G standard patent filings, patent law firms (5–50 employees) spend 2M–5M KRW (approx. $1,500–$3,750) per case and 2–4 weeks translating Korean patent specifications into English, Japanese, and Chinese. 6G patents contain numerous emerging technical terms (AI-RAN, terahertz, satellite IoT), resulting in 15–20% mistranslation rates by general patent translators.

Solution

A 6G and telecommunications domain-specialized patent claims auto-translation SaaS. Core features: (1) Korean-to-English/Japanese/Chinese AI translation with built-in 6G terminology dictionary, (2) Automatic claims structure parsing with translation consistency verification, (3) Translator review collaboration features (revision history and terminology unification tracking). Key differentiators: 6G domain-specific terminology dictionary and claims structure recognition.

Target: Patent law firms and patent offices with 5–50 employees, telecom and semiconductor company IP teams, patent attorneys and patent engineers aged 30–50
Revenue Model: Per-transaction billing at 5,000 KRW/claim (approx. $3.75), full specification translation at 150,000 KRW/case (approx. $112). Monthly plan: 490,000 KRW/month for 200 claims + 5 specifications (approx. $367). 20% discount for annual contracts.
