The agent swarm

Six sub-agents under one signature.

HivePrior isn't a chatbot. It's a recursive swarm of specialized sub-agents whose outputs are individually signed and folded into the final receipt. You can replay any sub-step.

Deliverables

What every run produces.

  • Anticipation (102) and obviousness (103) hit list, per claim element
  • Twelve-corpus search trace — repeatable, hashed
  • Litigation-ready exhibit PDFs with provenance trail
  • Strongest 5 references ranked with attorney-grade write-up
  • Signed prior-art receipt, IPR-petition formatted
Why HivePrior beats current practice

Four models. One signed receipt. Disagreement made visible.

Most prior-art searches return 12 PDFs and a one-paragraph summary. You can't tell what the searcher missed. You can't replay the queries. And the 102/103 mapping is rarely written out — it's left implicit.

How HivePrior is different. HivePrior runs a 4-model Council search across USPTO, EPO, WIPO, and 25M NPL records. Every reference is mapped element-by-element to the asserted claims at R3 depth. The receipt shows which model surfaced each hit and the §102/§103 theory each model assigned — disagreement is visible, not hidden.

Chain of custody

Mint a receipt for any HivePrior output.

Paste a HivePrior output below. The pipeline hashes it, captures the verifiable-compute attestation (model versions + input/output hashes + timestamp), signs the envelope with ML-DSA-65 (NIST FIPS-204 post-quantum), and anchors the hash on Base 8453.
