Chinese ↔ English patents

Chinese-English patent translation that keeps one term, one meaning

Chinese and English patent drafting conventions differ in claim structure, connector words and technical naming. PatentLingo reads the whole docx draft, builds a glossary for this language pair before translating, and keeps the same terminology from claims through the specification.

Why this matters for Chinese-English patents

One glossary, both directions

Technical terms keep one agreed translation instead of drifting between sections.

Claim structure respected

Antecedent relationships and limitations are prioritized over stylistic smoothing on either side.

Reference numerals preserved

Numbering and figure labels are kept as written.

Assisted review available

In Assisted mode, review and edit the glossary before the full run.

Chinese-English translation questions

Does it translate from Chinese to English and English to Chinese?

Available source and target languages are shown when you upload your document; check the upload screen for current language-pair support.

Will it match CNIPA or USPTO filing formatting requirements?

No. It produces a reviewable text translation; formal filing formatting and requirements should be handled by your patent attorney or agent.

How does it keep terminology consistent between the two languages?

A glossary is built from your draft before translation and reused across claims and specification, so the same technical term maps to the same translation throughout.

Can I preview before paying?

Yes. Upload the draft, preview a free sample, then decide on the full translation.

How is pricing calculated?

Pricing is tiered by the source text's character count and shown before you upload; there is no subscription.
