The Brazilian National Institute of Industrial Property (INPI) is embarking on a significant transformation of its patent services. A recent presentation detailed plans to replace the current web search system with a comprehensive, unified platform designed to streamline the entire patent process. This initiative promises to enhance efficiency, reduce user errors, and improve the overall experience for patent applicants and stakeholders. Current Challenges in the Brazilian Patent System Currently, the INPI’s patent system relies on several disconnected systems.

We’ve all been there: headphones on, music pumping, fingers flying across the keyboard, lost in the “flow” with your favorite AI agent. This, my friends, is vibe coding. It’s when you’re in the zone, seemingly effortlessly producing code. It’s the idea that you can create great software simply by immersing yourself in the feeling of coding, trusting your intuition and riding the wave of inspiration. But lately, I’ve realized that for me, at least, the vibe is…off.

So, I was watching this video the other day, and it got me thinking… you know, about how everything’s changing with AI.

That’s software lock-in, and honestly, I think AI is making that a thing of the past.

I needed an easy and cheap option to integrate my vault with artificial intelligence. The easiest option could be to pay for subscriptions, which would be a high cost for me, since I am would not use the service that often to justify. Another option would be to pay for a Cloud GPU service to run big queries that would be unfeasible to run locally. This option seemed too cumbersome for my case.
