Idea Capture Service

We have over 25 years of experience helping clients effectively assess and capture their ideas. We use a variety of tools to help teams to get the most from their innovation investments. Prices vary depending on particulars.


Patent Drafting Service

Patent agents and attorneys are a necessary part of any effort to build a serious patent portfolio. Finding suitable subject matter experts is an important test of any agent you work with. Having them in the same city is not. From a cost perspective, you should shop around and look for value for money. Today, the American Bar Association reports that the average cost of a single US patent filing exceeds $20,000 USD.

Typical Price:
  • US provisional patent filing  = $2,000 USD *
  • US full patent filing             = $5,000 to $10,000 USD *

(* plus govt. fees)
