# Scholarized

> Public patent discovery, reading, comments, and human-written articles.

Scholarized helps people browse and discuss public patent publications. The product is local-first: patents are stored in our database after first view / search import. Full text (claims and description) may be stored in object storage.

## Machine-readable patent export (API)

Base API: https://scholand-production.up.railway.app/v1

- Patent JSON detail: GET /patents/{slug}
- Copy-for-AI Markdown: GET /patents/{slug}/export?format=md
- Plain text: GET /patents/{slug}/export?format=txt
- Structured JSON export: GET /patents/{slug}/export?format=json
- Search / feed: GET /patents?q=...&limit=20
- Corpus counts: GET /patents/stats

Search may import remote patents (USPTO Open Data Portal and optionally Google BigQuery patents-public-data) into the local registry on miss. Opening a patent persists full text once (store-on-first-view).

## Optional assistant prompt

When analyzing a patent, prefer fetching `/patents/{slug}/export?format=md` so you receive abstract, claims, and description. Cite the publication number and Scholarized URL in answers.
