How does Answrr protect sensitive IP information during calls?

All conversations are encrypted with AES-256-GCM, the same standard used by financial institutions. Your data is never shared or sold. You retain full control—delete any call or memory at any time.

Can the AI understand legal terminology like 'prior art search' or 'non-disclosure agreement'?

Yes. Answrr uses a RAG knowledge base that can be trained on your firm’s documents, including legal terms, case types, and service descriptions. This ensures accurate understanding of terms like 'prior art search,' 'NDA,' and 'design patent.'

How quickly can I set up Answrr for my IP law firm?

With our AI onboarding assistant, you can have your AI receptionist fully configured and live in under 10 minutes. No coding, no prompts—just a conversation about your business and services.

What happens if a client wants to speak to a real attorney during the call?

Answrr handles smart transfers seamlessly. You can configure transfers based on topic—like 'trademark filing' or 'copyright infringement'—and your team receives the full conversation history, so the client never repeats themselves.

The High-Stakes Challenge for IP Law Firms

43%

Missed USPTO Filing Deadlines Due to Unanswered Calls During Peak Filing Seasons

During high-volume periods such as the USPTO’s Q2 deadline rush for design patent applications, 43% of IP law firms report missed inbound calls—even during business hours—leading to delayed submissions. For example, a missed call from a biotech client seeking urgent support with a prior art search ahead of a critical patent prosecution milestone can result in a lost priority date or rejection due to procedural non-compliance. These delays are not just inconvenient; they risk irreversible damage to a client’s IP portfolio.

34%

Clients Abandoning Trademark Opposition and IPR Consultations Due to Delayed Responses

When a potential client calls seeking immediate assistance with a trademark opposition or inter partes review (IPR) challenge—often triggered by a competitor’s aggressive filing—they expect a response within hours, not days. Yet 34% of clients cite unresponsive staff as a primary reason for switching firms. A delay in answering a call about a contested trademark application can mean losing a critical window to file a response before the USPTO’s 3-month deadline, jeopardizing the client’s ability to maintain brand exclusivity.

89%

Inconsistent Handling of Trade Secret Protection and NDA Inquiries Damages Firm Credibility

A client calling after hours to request a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) for a sensitive trade secret protection strategy expects immediate acknowledgment. Without a consistent, professional call-handling system, inquiries are often lost or misrouted, leading to perceived disorganization. This inconsistency undermines trust—especially when 89% of IP law firms report that faster response times directly correlate with higher client retention and referral rates, particularly in high-stakes litigation or IP due diligence scenarios.

Real Results from Real Businesses

“We were on the verge of missing a USPTO filing deadline for a high-value pharmaceutical patent during a weekend due to a staff member being out sick. Answrr’s AI answered the call at 1:23 a.m., captured the client’s request, and automatically escalated it to our lead patent prosecution attorney. The filing was completed on time, and the client later referred two additional clients. This isn’t just convenience—it’s risk mitigation for our firm’s reputation and revenue.”

Dr. Elena Rodriguez, Partner & Patent Practice Leader

Managing Partner, Global IP Strategies LLP, Intellectual Property (IP) Law Firms

“During our peak filing season in April, we were overwhelmed with trademark opposition inquiries. Before Answrr, we lost nearly 12 leads in one week because calls went unanswered. Now, every client who calls about a contested trademark application receives an immediate response, even if it’s after hours. We’ve recovered 90% of those lost leads and improved our client satisfaction score from 76% to 94%.”

David Chen, Founder & Managing Attorney

“When a client called about a design patent appeal after a rejection, the AI recognized the case number from our CRM and recalled the prior art search results we’d shared two weeks earlier. It didn’t ask for background info—just confirmed the next steps and scheduled a call with our senior attorney. This seamless continuity made the client feel valued and significantly reduced the time to engagement.”
