Patenting Breakthrough Ideas For Entrepreneurs, Startups, And Innovative Companies

Need help protecting your idea? Providing intellectual property services tailored to startups, entrepreneurs, and innovative companies is what we do.

Entrepreneurs, startups, and innovative companies have lots of ideas and can move through product development at a fast pace. Protecting ideas is essential, but ideas often evolve during product development. So how best to protect the early ideas as well as the final product?

Ideas To Product

We use a patent strategy that includes mentoring entrepreneurs and startups about the patent process. This approach engages the product developers and inventors to participate in refining ideas and collaborating in the development of patent applications. We also integrate designing the patent applications into the product development cycle so that early ideas, the final product, as well as product variations for the future, are all protected. We call it Bootstrap Patenting and we do it on a shoestring budget because that is how startups and entrepreneurs operate.

Let us join your team and get started working on protecting your greatest innovations.

For Startups & Entrepreneurs

idea-board

We welcome opportunities to advise/coach on patents, and the patent process. We can also assist in developing a patent strategy for your company. If you're willing to do a little work to get your idea written down on paper we'll do the rest to get you a patent-pending fast and within your budget.

 

3D-CAD-design

So many products are designed virtually and have distinctive shape features. To save time and cost, we can turn your 3D model into a design patent that protects how your product looks.

 

Collborate

As part of your product development journey, we are available to advise about IP and can draft patent applications to protect products, business models, and software. When you need to discover new market or industry opportunities we can facilitate an idea capture workshop or build a macro-trend & patent landscape map.


For Innovative Companies

You need a patent strategy. Our approach leverages fractional IP services that are flexible and can be designed right into your product development process. Bringing the creation of patent applications closer to the technical team gets them involved in the process which in turn makes better quality patent applications.

Mentoring innovators about the patent process, running workshops to harvest ideas, and teaching how to organize product drawings and write descriptions that can be used in patent applications empowers them to be more proactive in IP creation. In addition, when the inventors and innovation teams can produce accurate disclosures of their inventions the cost associated with preparing patent applications can be reduced. This collaboration also promotes capturing and protecting more early ideas and evolving ideas during the product development process.

Create IP faster from the spark of breakthrough ideas through product development and commercialization. A competitive advantage for your company can be the capability to rapidly identify, document, and protect ideas in a fast-paced product development environment.

Patent More, Pay Less

Focused on the project, working as long as it takes to get the job done, your Patent Counsel should tirelessly work as your innovation team does. For many, holding back patent protection of their greatest innovations is the by-the-hour-law model. Open-ended in nature, costs often exceed budget quickly and at times can seem uncontrollable. Too costly to protect, good market-changing ideas can tragically get left behind.

Replace your current by-the-hour-law-model with a predictable flat-fee-for-service model. Freed of time-bound costs we can commit as much time and energy as it takes to patent-protect your greatest innovations. Patent More, Pay Less!

Patent Cost Estimates
  • Provisional Patents Starting At $490* - You make the first draft of the invention description we take it from there.
  • Design Patents $1,700-$2,000* - Starting with your 3D CAD model avoids additional drafting fees.
  • Utility Patents $3,500 -$4,900* - Average cost, continuation applications often less.
  • Office Actions $900 -$1,900* - Will quote based on complexity.

*Plus the US Patent Office fees.
