You can access the PatSeer Explorer patent database at: https://oulu.patseer.com/Account/Login. Notice that you can use the database for your studies or checking the novelty of your business idea.

The database contains more than 136 million patent and 200 million scientific publications in the fields of physics, mathematics, computer science, biomedicine, etc.

While free patent databases can also be used for making searches, there are several benefits to this paid version. These include: you can better filter search results, save search phrases and results, and transfer the results to Word or Excel for further use.
