Alerts
Alerts are saved searches which are scheduled to run at specified intervals, and to then report matching documents to you, in the manner you choose. Alert notifications can be sent to you via email, in account ("My Alert" page in your FreePatentsOnline account), or both.
For your convenience, alerts are automatically run with a date range (the day you last ran the alert to the present) to ensure no documents are missed since the last time the Alert was run. To override the default date range, specify a date range in the query and run the search.
Alerts
- Notify you when there are new documents added to your area of interest
- Let you set the mode and frequency of alert notifications, to suit your needs
- Allow you to retrieve the query of the corresponding saved search to modify/refine your search
