Dominic Davies, co-founder of Lightbringer, joins the pod to talk patents, automation and founder-first IP. With a background in both software and patent law, he’s now building a system that aims to replace the traditional patent firm entirely — starting with the needs of deeptech startups.
From knowledge graphs to GPT-3, Lightbringer was born out of frustration with how things work, and belief that IP doesn’t have to be a bottleneck. This is the story of how AI can rebuild trust, speed and strategic value into one of tech’s most painful processes.
✅ Why the traditional patent process is broken — and what founders can do instead
✅ How Lightbringer turned AI into a full-stack IP engine
✅ When to file (and when to definitely not rely on that NDA)
✅ Why investors care more about your patent strategy than you think
✅ What happens when AI outpaces the knowledge workers who thought they were safe
✅ Building fast teams in Sweden, and why the ecosystem is shifting
