About Bulk Download Database Tables
PatentsView offers publicly accessible patent research data sets with detailed documentation. PatentsView database tables can be bulk downloaded as individual files in a tab- delimited format for programmers and researchers who prefer to work with the data in their native environments.
The PatentsView database is created from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) public bulk data releases available at https://developer.uspto.gov/data. These data releases provide information on published patent applications (since 2001) and granted patents (since 1976). The PatentsView database for patents is available for download upon request, MySQL dump. The PatentsView database for published applications contains pre-grant publications (PGPub) of patent applications (see MPEP § 1120) and is available in the top row of data in the table above.
