Filing for a Patent
Filing for a patent is like officially claiming ownership of your brilliant idea or invention. It's a formal way of saying, 'This is mine!' When you file for a patent, you're submitting all the details about your invention to the government at $45.
Reasons to initiate a provisional patent application
You’ve worked hard to protect your brand. Don’t let it lapse.
1. Priority and Protection
Initiating a provisional patent application establishes an early filing date for your invention. This priority can be crucial in securing your intellectual property rights, providing a legal foundation for future patent protection.
2. Extended Development Time
Filing a provisional patent allows you additional time to refine and develop your invention before committing to a full patent application. During this period, you can test the market, seek potential investors, or make improvements without the risk of losing patent rights.
3. Optimize Tax Planning
Provisional patent applications are generally more affordable compared to regular patent filings. This cost-effective approach enables inventors to secure a filing date and preliminary protection without the immediate financial commitment required for a full patent application.
Safeguard your innovation now, finalize the patent application later
Take a proactive step to protect your brilliant idea by safeguarding it now, even if you're not ready to finish the whole patent application process just yet. It's like putting a safety net around your innovation. This way, you secure an early date for your creation, giving you time to fine-tune things or gather more information.
