See what customers are saying:

"Your patent kit provided everything I needed to start the patent process. After I received the patent pending notice from the Patent Office and acquired a partner, I gave everything to my partners patent attorney to file the formal applications. They indicated that the work I had done using your Provisional Patent Kit was as thorough and complete as any they had seen from any practicing patent attorney. Thank you for a great product (and learning experience), I would recommend your products and services to anyone that contemplates filling for a patent. My idea and subsequent patent application, with the help of your PPA kit have resulted in a new company, MedicTag LLC, which has every indication of being quite successful. We already have distributors in the US and are making arrangements with distributors in Canada, Australia and the UK. It is very likely that none of this would have would have come about without the help of your PPA Kit. It was probably the best investment I made in the whole start up process"

The 350+ page, electronic Provisional Patent Application Do-it-yourself Kit and Inventor's Guide easily empowers you to prepare and file your own legally valid Provisional Patent Application to immediately attain "Patent-Pending" status and protect your ideas. Unlike a regular patent application, with our guidance, a Provisional Patent Application can be written by an average person in simple, plain English. When you file a Provisional Patent Application at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, you may legally use the "Patent-Pending" term, and it creates an filing date for your idea that proves you were the "first to invent." A PPA is usually the best way to go if you want to secure your patent rights and preliminary protection without having to spend thousands for a full utility patent before you determine whether your invention is worth the up front investment. In this way, our PPA Kit/Guide and supporting services> help you save thousands of dollars in utility patent application, Attorney fees by, instead, getting "Patent-Pending" status through the PPA- for very little money and time. In short, with this "Patent-Pending" status, you get an extra year to safely use or disclose your idea to investors/licensees to determine the value of your idea before investing thousands. This PPA Kit/Guide was published in 2003 and is up to date with the lanew test Provisional Patent Application templates, checklists, forms, guidelines, laws, rules, and procedures.

†Fees subject to change without notice. Fees are for our service, and do not include any other related costs; e.g., USPTO fees, document shipping fees, etc. Electronic PPA kit requires Internet access. When required, fees quoted assume you provide an electronic draft PPA; otherwise, additional hourly fees may apply. See service agreement on order page for details.
‡If you follow the step-by-step instructions in the PPA kit, and ask us by email any questions particular to your case, your PPA is extremely likely to satisfy minimum legal requirements. However, if it is within your budget, you should upgrade to the "Professional Review" level of service, so we can give you feedback on what to add and/or change to bring your PPA into conformity with the minimum legal requirements.
*Because all claims are not prepared first, as is done for regular patent applications, the scope and strength of your future patent protection could be compromised. “Minimum” means that at least your exact invention may be protected. All quality ratings stated are relative to other PPA options.
