"While Google Patents and other services have helped make things a little easier, there is no doubt that patent lawyers and agents would benefit from more modern options — such as Accio Patent’s solution directed at retrieving PDF copies of patents."
Gaston Kroub, Above the Law
"The app streamlines the task of fetching a patent in multiple ways. First, the app makes it as easy as possible to enter the patent number. You can type the number using a numeric keypad. Better yet, if you have access to a hard copy of the first page, you can tap the barcode button at the top right of the app to scan the barcode."
Jeff Richardson, iPhone J.D.
