1/5 · Inventor & invention
STEP 1 / 5

Let's start your application

Who you are, what to call the invention, and everything you already have on paper. Rough documents are fine - the AI reads all of it.

What are you protecting?

Be clear up front: a design patent only protects physical things with a shape - a product, packaging, or a screen design. It covers how it looks, never how it works. Methods, software logic, formulas, and services need a utility patent.

Lead inventor

An inventor is anyone who materially contributed to what the claims cover - not investors, and not helpers who just followed instructions. Start with the lead inventor, then add any co-inventors below; you'll confirm the final list once you've reviewed the claims.

Where do you live?
Who will own the patent?
What kind of application?
Timing check

Patent rights are time-sensitive. We ask before you pay, not after.

Has the invention been sold, offered for sale, or shown publicly?

Counts: crowdfunding, trade shows, demo videos, public listings, published papers, even one sale. NDA conversations do not.

Did anyone else help invent this?

Naming every inventor is a legal requirement, and getting it wrong can invalidate a patent later. You will confirm the final list after you read the claims - for now we just need to know who to include.

Upload everything you have
Photos, sketches, diagrams, screenshots of your CAD - the more the AI sees, the stronger the application. PNG, JPG and SVG for now. Nothing is shared; your upload is confidential and timestamped.
