Edge Supports Drafts (And New AI Features!)

Edge now supports multiple drafts. We've also added new AI commands

When working on an application, it is not uncommon to have multiple versions of a draft. This may be because you require feedback from the client, want to register a certain level of progress with a marker, or any number of docket management reasons.

Edge is a cloud-based system, so it backs up your data every few seconds. But now with Edge, you can now demarcate drafts with our versioning feature. This adds on to our mission to create the easiest-to-use, yet most powerful, editor available for patents.

Drafts with Edge

Creating a draft is easy. On the top left, you will see an indicator that says “latest version.” This tells you which draft you are looking at. If you look at a previous draft, this indicator will change.

When you press the status indicator, a sidebar will pop up with all your previous drafts. Just click the draft and you will enter read-only mode on that draft. Everything will revert, including the figures, bibliographic data, and more.

Similarly, if you would like to cut a new version, just press the “new draft” button. Then you just enter a new name and that is it. By default, the draft will be named by the date.

New Assistant Commands

On top of versions, Edge Assistant now includes several new commands. We are frequently investing in new Assistant features.

Tables

Edge has the easiest to use tables of any drafting software, period. But what if you want to make a table that contains a lot of content? Wouldn’t it be nice if the Assistant could do it for you?

We now offer that functionality pre-built. You can highlight body text to create a table summarizing or adding on to the contents in the paragraph. You can also create a table from scratch by describing what you’d like the Assistant to make and pressing Command-K in a new line; for example, “create a table of common stochastic functions with a column for the name and another column with the formula.”

Embodiments

Oftentimes, practitioners will want to add short embodiments. For example, describing a figure with an optional component, describing potential variations of a method, or applications of a drug. These embodiments often contain long lists and be quite tedious to draft, sometimes requiring a half hour of research to draft.

Edge is making those embodiments easier to work with than ever. Just highlight the text of the embodiment you want to modify and the Assistant will draft a candidate for you, based on your instructions and its knowledge of patents and the world of science and engineering. You can also ask it to create a paragraph without being anchored in specific text, like “Create a paragraph describing 100 potential cancers this formulation can work with,” by pressing Command-K in a new line.
