Innovation Safeguarded by Team Lightbringer

With expertise in intellectual property, innovation and engineering, we bridge the gap between innovators and patent attorneys.

Our mission

Our mission is to simplify the patent process, empowering innovators to control their intellectual property journey.

who we are

Lightbringer is an innovative company dedicated to revolutionizing the patenting experience for inventors. By harnessing the power of generative AI along with our extensive expertise in the patent industry, the Lightbringer platform streamlines and accelerates the entire patent process from beginning to end.

The idea behind the company originates from Dominic Davies, a patent attorney with a background in software engineering, who envisioned automating the patent process. As the founder of an IP (intellectual property) law firm, he sought to minimize the time spent on patent administration to allow him to focus on strategic work and client care. He found a way — and the team — to make it a reality.

Our team boasts extensive experience in technology, innovation, IP and entrepreneurship, all united by a common goal: to reinvent patent protection for the AI era.
