Fix a failed audit with a suggested revision

When an audit fails, get a proposed rewrite, compare it with your text and apply or reject it.

What it does

When an audit on your draft fails, the app can ask the server for a suggested edit that is meant to make the audit pass. One example is the Alice check (called "§101 Subject-matter (Alice)" in the app): Alice is a 2014 decision of the US Supreme Court that limits patents on abstract ideas, applied through section 101 of US patent law (35 U.S.C. 101). You see the old text and the new text side by side and decide.

How to use it

  1. Open a ready draft and scroll to Audit pipeline.
  2. Tap a card with the status Failed. It opens.
  3. Tap Apply suggested revision. If a suggestion exists, a sheet called Auto-fix opens.
  4. The sheet says "Suggested edit to <section> so this audit passes". It shows Current text in red and Proposed text in green, with a short reason.
  5. Tap Apply to accept. The app saves the new text, reloads the draft and runs the audits again. Tap Reject or Cancel to close the sheet and leave your draft as it is.

Settings that affect it

None. The button appears on any failed audit card.

Limits and honest caveats

  • Not every failed audit has a suggestion. When the server has none, the sheet does not open and the app shows no message. If tapping the button does nothing, there is nothing to apply.
  • If saving the suggestion fails, the app also stays silent. Check the draft text and try again.
  • The proposed text is written by AI (artificial intelligence) and can be wrong. Read it before you apply it.
  • A suggestion changes one section of the draft. After applying, the audit runs again and can still fail.
  • You can fix the text yourself instead. See "Edit a draft".

FAQ

Will the fix make my patent valid? No. It is an attempt to satisfy one automatic check. It is not legal advice.

Can I undo it? Edit the section by hand. If you want to keep the old wording, copy the Current text from the sheet before you tap Apply.

Does Reject delete anything? No. It only closes the sheet.
