I know it hurts to know someone else makes the money when you bring their invention to life but think about working for your boss he charges alot more then he pays you too 💯 I'm done working for machine shops and working on other people's dreams time to do it for my kids my journey starts today I have 3 great ideas I really just need to get them on paper and make one more prototype then I will be contacting you thank you so much
I have an idea for a website/huge company potential idea. So if it's not a physical object. What do I need to do before launching or creating this massive site

1:12 key point “take your idea and go build it” how can you trust that person If you may not have any patent on it during the first few stages of developing a prototype?
Love this question. If you can, build it on your own. If you must hire someone to help you, then be sure to use a nondisclosure agreement (and have an state-licensed business attorney help you draft it). This way, disclosure to the third party to help you prototype will not start the 1-year window. If you need any further guidance or a referral to a business attorney, shoot me an email: jd@boldip.com.
@@boldpatents wow thank you! A reply straight from the source! This individual owns a 3D printing business. Long story short he said “what are you inventing?” And I skirted around the whole idea and just have him a brief overview and not entirely giving it up. But Iam still at the BEGINNING stages like. If this was an airplane, I’m seeing what 1 blade of a propeller looks like. I haven’t even started getting all the nuts and bolts together.
My question is about researching. What if a person is looking around the net to see if anyone else has thought of the same idea that you may have? You are inputting your idea out there to look if it’s been done already, Not to share or feelers. How do you show the difference? And if someone else has a similar idea going, do they need to be contacted with permission or to confirm? Because then now I’m telling my idea to someone that could possibly get it done before I can .. how do you avoid that ?
The best advice I can give here is to speak with a patent attorney/law firm that is bound to confidentiality about your invention (Both from state bar and the USPTO ethics rules), then they will perform the search for you, and hopefully confirm the invention's novelty/non-obviousness. Otherwise, if you rely on 3rd parties (especially outside an NDA) you are disclosing your invention publicly which starts the 1 year statutory bar as well as opens yourself up for risk of others filing the invention as if it were theirs.
Is the international patent office confrontational, or helpful and fair? Never tell anyone anything about your patent-able works until the international patent was granted. I am worried about the patent office publishing my descriptions when somehow its patent was not granted.
6:08 Unless I'm mistaken, this 1 year period isn't exactly an opportunity to work in the open without concern. Disclosing has the threat that your invention is stolen by somebody with the means to submit an application sooner than you based on the first to file rule. Is that correct?
Mike, right you are. I just went to 6:08, and this 1 year statutory period is the grace period you have if you've publicly disclosed, sold, or offered for sale your invention - if its been under one year, then you may still be eligible to file for patent protection, if its been more than 1 year, it is no eligible. You are correct, by waiting and not filing, you take the risk that someone else independently invents the same/similar invention and files before you. However, if someone actulaly "steals" your invention, and you can prove that they derived the invention from you, and they are defrauding the patent office, saying that they invented (when really it was you), there is a process called a derivation proceeding at the PTAB whereby you can demonstrate when, how, and where they learned of your invention and you can take over the ownership of the patent application. More on derivation proceedings here: www.uspto.gov/patents-application-process/patent-trial-and-appeal-board/trials/derivation-proceeding

How can we take into account patents filed by competiton when they are not published yet into public domain, before we design our idea? Or in other words - do we have to consider only published patents as a prior art or we have to get filed patent info as well for Prior art?
Kevin, yes - there is a blackout period after others file, that is 18 months. You will never be able to see what was recently filed by competitors/other inventors. All you can do is review/research prior art from publicly available databases.
@@boldpatents I think I saw a story on TV about the early inventors in the electronic fields, that corrupt examiners would let their favored inventors have a peek at applications just filed. I think it was in a story about Alexander Graham Bell.
how do you take existing technology already developed and in use but you have an idea for rental business and possible application using these existing products

Hi. Thank you for the great video. I have an idea and a prototype, Of course I am not the originator of a similar products work but I have the concept and use it on an household product. There are no similar or I can say its the one and only in the world that uses this concept with different adaptor for use on the household product. But the lawyer I approached said that it cannot be patented because one look its similar to the other tool used on other product or categories. Is there anyway to make the patent possible. This new tool that applied the same principle but has to use a different adaptor in order for it to work. Moreover the product size and categories are totally not the same. For example the steam iron used on the clothes and the steam jet used on the floor cleaning as they used the steam jet principle to eject steam and clean but only for different categories of product.
Hey Juz, well - I think you should get a second opinion. It could be that your invention is obvious or is not new - but that determination should only come AFTER doing research and really thinking about the differences that your invention has structurally and functionally. Even beyond that, even if functionality is too similar, you can likely still get a design paten to protect the shape/aesthetic and find some way to protect what you've come up with. Let's gather some initial information at our free 15 min meeting to see if we can help: calendly.com/business-consultations/am06-youtube
You say I have to be able to write down everything about an invention so someone could take it and build it, right? Does it have to be that detailed? What if I have an idea, but I don't know how to build it? I have an idea for a little machine, I can describe in words what it is and the function it would perform, but I couldn't make a prototype even if I wanted to. I have no earthly idea what internal mechanisms and software I would need to actually make a functional version of it. Do I need to hire an engineer to figure that part out on paper before I can apply for a patent?
You need to be able to explain the novel aspects of your invention such that someone in the field could make/use it. If your invention includes standard/known mechanisms/equipment/devices, then you do not need to describe those, since it is already known/published.
My prototype is complete and I am prepping to apply for my patent. I approached a welder with my idea and he made it for me while also adding suggestions, which I accepted. He didn’t really know what I was doing with the product. Does he have the right to be listed as an inventor ?
No, if the welder just build what you designed, then they are not a co-inventor. However, if they contributed to any of the core design/concept then they may be.
Okay so what if the idea is something that is kinda something else but used for something completely different lol like say it was a grill built into a car door for camping except you have to remove the car door and replace it with a grill door. It’s still a car door so can you patent that? That’s not my great idea but that’s the only way I can describe my question without telling you what My idea is. @@boldpatents
@@roselolagne6642 sure, the key question is whether the new “repurpose” is nonobvious. Meaning, is the car door a logical or well known use for a grill? If so, then it is too obvious.
Yes. However, if you have rights in the US, that overseas manufacturer cannot import, use, or sell in the US even if manufactured overeseas - they will be limimted to non-US markets. In order to prevent them from making/using/selling in other countries, you will need to seek patent rights in those countries. A great approach is by using an international treaty called the Patent Cooperation Treaty.
Thank you for this video. If i were to remove an internal piece or add an internal piece to an existing patent , then describe it , as well as use it for a different function in order to target a certain demographic , would that be allowed ?
1) removing a claimed element from a patent claim set, YES , that is technically eligible for patenting, however, it is most likely already fully described by that underlying patent (as well as prior art). But, if you are able to define new functionality with fewer elements, then you are on to new patentable subject matter. 2) Adding an internal piece, YES i is technically eligible for patenting, but you will be up against the challenge of whether that additional component is novel and not an obvious addition based on the underlying patent and prior art.
Great video sir. I have a product that was invented years ago by my friends late father. They produced this product and went on to sell them and occasionally still sell the odd one here and there. I approached my friend and asked if I can make a version of it and he has given me the go ahead.They have no patent protection filed only a trademark on its name that it out of date. I have changed and improved the design including the name, shape and material it's made from. It is unique in its design and solves a real world problem and I cant find anything like it anywhere. Would this be something I could file a patent on ? If yes ,should I file the PPA before approaching a company who help to launch inventors designs.

I just stumbled upon your videos. There are really amazing and timely. How much would it coat o hire an attorney to assist in patenting your idea. And if you patent your idea do you still need to patent it when you execute it. Thanks
patenting can be very costly and depends on the number of countries you want to apply for. As a minimum, I guess 7000$ are required. The patent gives you protection for you're idea no matter if you execute it or not.
Probably not, unless you filed a PCT application within one year of your European priority date. A PCT is an international placeholder which can afford you up to 30 months of time after your earliest priority date to file into foreign countries.
As USPTO Patent Attorneys we have an oath of confidentiality to any inventors who we speak with whether we engage in services or not. Schedule a screening session to gather information for yourself. Click here: calendly.com/business-consultations/am06-youtube
Hello, I would like more information on finding a patent attorney. Cost? Where to locate a reputable attorney in Northern VA? Do I share my idea with the attorney and trust that my idea will not be stolen?
You bet! I've actually written a long-form article on how to find a good patent attorney (here: boldip.com/blog/questions-to-ask-a-patent-attorney/). I also wrote an article on patent cost (here: boldip.com/blog/patent-cost). Also, you should not limit your search for only local attorneys. We are a virtual firm and are able to serve clients NATIONWIDE, since it is a federal practice. Yes... you must be willing to share your invention with a USPTO Patent Attorney, we are the ones you can trust.
Also, what if my device integrates another very specific component of a third party? E.g. some patented hi-tech component which I cannot develop from scratch but my device strongly depends on its unique properties? Do I need to do a collaborative venture with the owner of that third party component's patent? Thanks so much for informative videos.
You're welcome, Lenny. I think we could benefit from a consultation - you have so many good questions. I'd say you can/should work closely with that 3rd party under a confidentiality agreement in order to prove the concept. Then, you should seek a patentability opinion from a Patent Attorney and then proceed with filing a patent application. Email me: jd@boldip.com.
If I am interested in creating a specific online social platform, especially if I have someone code it and bring it to life, shouldn't I patent the name and/or idea of it FIRST?
Definitely always better sooner rather than later, but I will need more information that I don't want you to share in a public forum. Our screenings are free if you want to have a chat: boldip.com/contact/
So if my idea requires the use of someone else's technology can I still patent that is it just a matter of paying them to use their product in mine? Also is there a way to sell my idea but still be involved and its development and marketing?
Yes, you may be able to get a patent on an improvement of another's technology/product. However, you won't be able to go to market with it without seeking a license from the underlying tech owner. If there's a way to sell just your improvement, you may do that separately without their permission. Example, if you're a custom automobile wheel designer, and you'd like to have it sold with new Ford Mustangs, you can't sell new Ford Mustangs (with your wheels installed) without the dealer's permission. But, you can sell those wheels aftermarket without the dealer's permission. The example isn't perfect, but hope it helps.
@@boldpatents I don't know if I would say it's an improvement upon their technology it would just be using their technology to send info to a CPU. But I also have several other applications for that technology. The owner of the technology is Google. Do you think they would ever let someone like me with no experience or formal education in the related fields be part of the development process for marketing? Also since it is Google would it be better to just sell them the idea after I pack it it and offer and hope I get to be involved in its development or marketing? Also thank you so much for the prompt response
Hello! I have a life-science/biotech idea that I would love to gain more information on how to move forward and get a patent for it. Is your law firm open to life science/ biotech ideas?
Hi, I did three patents in the life science /diagnostic field myself. Usually larger patent attorney offices have a specialist for each sector. Just beware that this is a lengthy and expensive process.Especially as life science needs protection in many countries. if you got further questions do not hesitate to contact me.

Hello, Can you please tell if I have a new idea, and it's possible to develop and build, and it's beneficial for a human community.

All co-inventors' names MUST be listed on a patent application per the USPTO requirements. If there is a company to which the inventors owe an obligation to assign their rights to - then the company can apply, but there must be a recorded invention assignment to go with it.
@@boldpatents Thank you. that is good to know. I was thinking for people who can not afford a patent, especially a worldwide one, that the inventor could perhaps go to a company, offer the idea with a witness present, and if the company director likes the idea, a contract could be signed to state the eventual patent could include both parties names. A bit risky, perhaps, but if the inventor is broke it could be an idea?
@@sbaxter4207 Sounds risky, but it’s possible. Also note, you’d want to try to get that company to sign an NDA first, and also note that the patent application itself can be funded by a 3rd party, but only inventors and owners may be listed. Email me for more Qs: jd@boldip.com
What If it is an upgrade to an earlier invention? So the invention isn't my idea but the way you make it more efficient is my idea. Is that patent eligible?
Yes, improvement patents are very common. You will need to confirm that the improvement is novel and not an obvious version of any prior art or the underlying invention. Also, you will likely need to be careful in your approach to monetizing the improvement. You'll have to get a license from the patent holder of the core invention, OR you can seek to license/sell your improvement to them!
I'm a 16 yo with an idea in India. I would like to know the process to patent it considering the idea fulfills the criterion. Do I need a blue print/ drawing explaining it?
Each country has their own patent laws, I'm not familiar with India's patent law. As for the US, yes, you will need a 2D line drawing to with your application. An engineering-level blueprint, is not required.
Again, speaking only to US patent law - yes, you are required to provide a written description which explains how to make/use your invention in order to get a patent.
Well, not just any app. If the software DOES something unique or provides a unique benefit for its users, then potentially. If the app is similar to other apps in terms of its functionality, then likely not.

You should hire a patent law firm to research and help you protect your invention by filing a patent application BEFORE speaking with that person or any third parties. At very least, you should hire a local business attorney to draft an enforceable NDA to sign with that wealthy individual before you disclose any aspect of your invention or seek funding.

Hi. I do have a question. I invented something about 15 years ago. I made it at home. And I have used it every day ever since. I still use it every day. It's in addition to something that already exists. I have no track record of it so to speak. I no longer have my first prototype if I'm saying that correctly. But I have made more and continue to use them. It is not something I sketched out on a piece of paper, is just something that I made and was very useful in my last two jobs and is very useful in my current job. Different lines of work. By not having my first prototype or a sketch or anything to prove that I am the inventor of this 15 years ago, can there be trouble if I try to patent this?
@@boldpatents Yes I've looked for weeks maybe even months. And nothing. I can't find anything. I know its not out there. Thank you for your time. Now i can look into a patent. What do you recommend? I'm in California. Or are the laws the same?
Is there a special hidden type of patent I would use to submit one that would be considered to be classified for defense purposes DOD. Or do I just type it and patient the encryption code file after encrypting it from public view? SO a file with say 120 pages would encrypt to say 400KB and I would take all the scrambled letters numbers etc from that file and register that. Or do I go through another pathway that is not of the norm?
No, in order to seek patent protection, you've got to submit your invention, written description, claims, and any drawings in clear english (no encryption). Note, patent applications are not published for 18 months from the priority date (initial filing date). The USPTO and DOD will review the application as-filed and will to determine if any subject matter is to be classified and handled under a secrecy order to follow a different publication and route than normal prosecution. Email me for more specific questions on this: jd@boldip.com.
@@boldpatents I thought that submitting a request to DOD to have on standby a Patent Agent that has the proper security clearance is set up on standby to receive such documents filings? 37 CFR 5.2 Secrecy order.
@@HitsInSandbox No, only after submitting a patent application will the DOD review what was submitted, and only after deeming the disclosure "detrimental to the national security" will they have the authority to place a secrecy order on the publication.

In the US, there is a 1-year grace period from when you publish or sell from when you must file a patent application, otherwise, it can be later invalidated due to the statutory bar rules.
RedVenomProductions Yes, there are! They are called continuation applications. There are a lot of nuances to this approach and will take a bit longer to explain. So, I’d like you to read the blog article I wrote on the subject: boldip.com/blog/continuation-divisional-patent-applications/
J.D. Houvener, Esq, MBA, PE yeah listen I’m not much of a reader and there’s a lot of writing. I’m just asking because you seem like an expert in this area and I have actually made some inventions that are very revolutionary but unfortunately with time other people will figure them out. So if I had a business and I had a patent or patents I was wondering, since to keep the business going and crushing my competitors, if I could extend a patent, in this case you said yes. But I have another question and that is for how long could I extend it?
@@RedVenomProductions The answer is not simple. If you don't want to read, I would recommend you schedule some time to speak with us directly using this link to get you more definitive answers: boldip.com/contact/
Potentially, yes! Method patents are commonly granted by the USPTO. You've got to make sure that if you're going to invest in time/money to acquire patent rights, that the method will be easily detected, so you can spot an infringer and enforce your rights. Sometimes, methods are hard to identify purely from the end product alone, so some inventors decide to keep these methods as trade secret. If you're not sure, you can do the "reverse engineer-ability test". Think, can you take apart the final product/craft and figure out HOW it was done? If YES - then you should try to seek patent protection on it. If NO, then you should likely keep it as a trade secret.
@@outlawkatt317 Well then, COPYRIGHT Law is your play for sure :) You'll want to register your written/visual/audio with the US Library of Congress. This will provide a legal remedy to prevent infringers from copying/publishing your content (or even a similar/derivative version) without your permission/license. www.copyright.gov/registration/
You can raise money in a variety of ways including: personal savings, family/friends, business partners, investors, incubators, pro-bono service, grants or get a loan from the bank or Small Business Association (SBA) among others.
what if the idea was so big and revolutionary, that no ordinary person could do it, so the idea itself is the patent and I would have to seek out someone like Amazon, sell them the idea, and they can actually fulfill the idea? Could i legally do that? Or do i need to have prototypes? My idea is seriously too big for just some guy to do, itd take millions if not billions of dollars to do
That does sound huge! You do NOT need a prototype in order to secure patent protection for your invention! Good news, right? :) Schedule a time to speak with us here: www.boldip.com/contact.
I'm going to have to go ahead and disagree with the notion that you don't need even a prototype. Unless your only goal is to get a patent vs making money on your invention. Technically, you are right, but that doesn't make it a good idea. If you haven't even made a prototype yet, what are your patent claims based on? What you think in your head your idea will be in the end? Lets say you get your patent based on that, but as you continue prototyping it and getting feedback from intended customers, and find manufacturability concerns. You will likely revise your idea many times through that process. You can easily design your way out from under your own patent's claims. Or worse yet, later find out there isn't actually a market for your invention like you thought there was.
Great points. I would generally agree, a prototype is smart - especially if it will help add more detail to a patent search or an application. That said, there are many inventors that have made invented in the same domain/space before and are well aware of how to make/build their invention, they just don’t feel the need to actually make it or prototype it. Yes, for the vast majority, even those who work in the same industry as their invention can gain valuable insights from building a proof of concept and can even surprise themselves with technical hurdles/solutions they discovered that weren’t previously considered.
I have a great idea that is one of those things that once it's implemented will seem like it was a no brainier like it should have been something that was always not only available but mandatory or at least came standard. I want to get some funding to make it in order to pitch it to the big manufacturers and get it to be a standard safety feature but don't want to risk my idea being stolen on a crowd funding site
The best thing to do is to work with a patent attorney and get a legal opinion on eligibility and patentability. If patentable, then secure patent protection first before going to any manufacturers, trying to raise money, or sharing with crowd funding sites. If not patentable then you can move directly to those 3rd parties. To see if you are a good fit for our firm, schedule 15 minutes here: calendly.com/business-consultations/am06-youtube

The best advice I can give here is to speak with a patent attorney/law firm that is bound to confidentiality about your invention (Both from state bar and the USPTO ethics rules), then they will perform the search for you, and hopefully confirm the invention's novelty/non-obviousness. Otherwise, if you rely on 3rd parties (especially outside an NDA) you are disclosing your invention publicly which starts the 1 year statutory bar as well as opens yourself up for risk of others filing the invention as if it were theirs.
You don't. And if u get a lower they just soak up all the oil. There alot like bread 🍞
Man you’re very informative.
Thanks, Francis! let me know if there are any topics you'd like me to drill deeper on. Go big, Go Bold!
@@boldpatents Can i get your whatsapp numbet or website link here??
Is the international patent office confrontational, or helpful and fair? Never tell anyone anything about your patent-able works until the international patent was granted. I am worried about the patent office publishing my descriptions when somehow its patent was not granted.
I also wonder about it
6:08 Unless I'm mistaken, this 1 year period isn't exactly an opportunity to work in the open without concern. Disclosing has the threat that your invention is stolen by somebody with the means to submit an application sooner than you based on the first to file rule. Is that correct?
Mike, right you are. I just went to 6:08, and this 1 year statutory period is the grace period you have if you've publicly disclosed, sold, or offered for sale your invention - if its been under one year, then you may still be eligible to file for patent protection, if its been more than 1 year, it is no eligible. You are correct, by waiting and not filing, you take the risk that someone else independently invents the same/similar invention and files before you. However, if someone actulaly "steals" your invention, and you can prove that they derived the invention from you, and they are defrauding the patent office, saying that they invented (when really it was you), there is a process called a derivation proceeding at the PTAB whereby you can demonstrate when, how, and where they learned of your invention and you can take over the ownership of the patent application. More on derivation proceedings here: www.uspto.gov/patents-application-process/patent-trial-and-appeal-board/trials/derivation-proceeding

Hi! This blog might be insightful for you: boldip.com/blog/patent-eligible/#Step_3_Patent_Eligibility
How can we take into account patents filed by competiton when they are not published yet into public domain, before we design our idea?
Or in other words - do we have to consider only published patents as a prior art or we have to get filed patent info as well for Prior art?
Kevin, yes - there is a blackout period after others file, that is 18 months. You will never be able to see what was recently filed by competitors/other inventors. All you can do is review/research prior art from publicly available databases.
@@boldpatents I think I saw a story on TV about the early inventors in the electronic fields, that corrupt examiners would let their favored inventors have a peek at applications just filed. I think it was in a story about Alexander Graham Bell.
how do you take existing technology already developed and in use but you have an idea for rental business and possible application using these existing products

Hi. Thank you for the great video. I have an idea and a prototype, Of course I am not the originator of a similar products work but I have the concept and use it on an household product. There are no similar or I can say its the one and only in the world that uses this concept with different adaptor for use on the household product. But the lawyer I approached said that it cannot be patented because one look its similar to the other tool used on other product or categories. Is there anyway to make the patent possible. This new tool that applied the same principle but has to use a different adaptor in order for it to work. Moreover the product size and categories are totally not the same. For example the steam iron used on the clothes and the steam jet used on the floor cleaning as they used the steam jet principle to eject steam and clean but only for different categories of product.
Hey Juz, well - I think you should get a second opinion. It could be that your invention is obvious or is not new - but that determination should only come AFTER doing research and really thinking about the differences that your invention has structurally and functionally. Even beyond that, even if functionality is too similar, you can likely still get a design paten to protect the shape/aesthetic and find some way to protect what you've come up with. Let's gather some initial information at our free 15 min meeting to see if we can help: calendly.com/business-consultations/am06-youtube
You say I have to be able to write down everything about an invention so someone could take it and build it, right? Does it have to be that detailed? What if I have an idea, but I don't know how to build it? I have an idea for a little machine, I can describe in words what it is and the function it would perform, but I couldn't make a prototype even if I wanted to. I have no earthly idea what internal mechanisms and software I would need to actually make a functional version of it. Do I need to hire an engineer to figure that part out on paper before I can apply for a patent?
You need to be able to explain the novel aspects of your invention such that someone in the field could make/use it. If your invention includes standard/known mechanisms/equipment/devices, then you do not need to describe those, since it is already known/published.
My prototype is complete and I am prepping to apply for my patent. I approached a welder with my idea and he made it for me while also adding suggestions, which I accepted. He didn’t really know what I was doing with the product. Does he have the right to be listed as an inventor ?
No, if the welder just build what you designed, then they are not a co-inventor. However, if they contributed to any of the core design/concept then they may be.
Depends. Is he cool? If so I'd include him ferda boys
What if my idea is to make an already existing product, better or different using the technology already available
Awesome! Most patents issued today are for improvements on an existing technology.
This was so helpful. Thanks!
You are welcome!! Let me know if you’d like to hear any other topics.
Okay so what if the idea is something that is kinda something else but used for something completely different lol like say it was a grill built into a car door for camping except you have to remove the car door and replace it with a grill door. It’s still a car door so can you patent that? That’s not my great idea but that’s the only way I can describe my question without telling you what My idea is.
@@boldpatents
@@roselolagne6642 sure, the key question is whether the new “repurpose” is nonobvious. Meaning, is the car door a logical or well known use for a grill? If so, then it is too obvious.
I really have a beneficial idea drawn out but have no idea how to get it going???
So if you don't have a patent in a another country the possible competitors can start manufacturing from that country?
Yes. However, if you have rights in the US, that overseas manufacturer cannot import, use, or sell in the US even if manufactured overeseas - they will be limimted to non-US markets. In order to prevent them from making/using/selling in other countries, you will need to seek patent rights in those countries. A great approach is by using an international treaty called the Patent Cooperation Treaty.
This is the smart move video 💯🌊🏄♀️
Thank you for this video. If i were to remove an internal piece or add an internal piece to an existing patent , then describe it , as well as use it for a different function in order to target a certain demographic , would that be allowed ?
1) removing a claimed element from a patent claim set, YES , that is technically eligible for patenting, however, it is most likely already fully described by that underlying patent (as well as prior art). But, if you are able to define new functionality with fewer elements, then you are on to new patentable subject matter.
2) Adding an internal piece, YES i is technically eligible for patenting, but you will be up against the challenge of whether that additional component is novel and not an obvious addition based on the underlying patent and prior art.
Hi
Do I have to have my idea patent to license and sell and do have video about licenseing and idea
Yes, the patent rights are what is being licensed. Without a patent, there is no asset. Yes, check out our channel and search for “licensing”
Great video sir. I have a product that was invented years ago by my friends late father. They produced this product and went on to sell them and occasionally still sell the odd one here and there. I approached my friend and asked if I can make a version of it and he has given me the go ahead.They have no patent protection filed only a trademark on its name that it out of date. I have changed and improved the design including the name, shape and material it's made from. It is unique in its design and solves a real world problem and I cant find anything like it anywhere.

You're welcome, Lenny. I think we could benefit from a consultation - you have so many good questions.

So if my idea requires the use of someone else's technology can I still patent that is it just a matter of paying them to use their product in mine? Also is there a way to sell my idea but still be involved and its development and marketing?
Yes, you may be able to get a patent on an improvement of another's technology/product. However, you won't be able to go to market with it without seeking a license from the underlying tech owner. If there's a way to sell just your improvement, you may do that separately without their permission. Example, if you're a custom automobile wheel designer, and you'd like to have it sold with new Ford Mustangs, you can't sell new Ford Mustangs (with your wheels installed) without the dealer's permission. But, you can sell those wheels aftermarket without the dealer's permission. The example isn't perfect, but hope it helps.
@@boldpatents I don't know if I would say it's an improvement upon their technology it would just be using their technology to send info to a CPU. But I also have several other applications for that technology. The owner of the technology is Google. Do you think they would ever let someone like me with no experience or formal education in the related fields be part of the development process for marketing? Also since it is Google would it be better to just sell them the idea after I pack it it and offer and hope I get to be involved in its development or marketing? Also thank you so much for the prompt response
@@robertillnevertell1507 Absolutely. I'd just recommend you be patent pending prior to discussing any aspect of your invention with Google.

I wonder, can a patent have two peoples names on the form? Or would it need to be a company name?
All co-inventors' names MUST be listed on a patent application per the USPTO requirements. If there is a company to which the inventors owe an obligation to assign their rights to - then the company can apply, but there must be a recorded invention assignment to go with it.
@@boldpatents Thank you. that is good to know. I was thinking for people who can not afford a patent, especially a worldwide one, that the inventor could perhaps go to a company, offer the idea with a witness present, and if the company director likes the idea, a contract could be signed to state the eventual patent could include both parties names. A bit risky, perhaps, but if the inventor is broke it could be an idea?
@@sbaxter4207 Sounds risky, but it’s possible. Also note, you’d want to try to get that company to sign an NDA first, and also note that the patent application itself can be funded by a 3rd party, but only inventors and owners may be listed. Email me for more Qs: jd@boldip.com

As long as it’s novel and non-obvious, Yes.
What If it is an upgrade to an earlier invention? So the invention isn't my idea but the way you make it more efficient is my idea. Is that patent eligible?
Yes, improvement patents are very common. You will need to confirm that the improvement is novel and not an obvious version of any prior art or the underlying invention. Also, you will likely need to be careful in your approach to monetizing the improvement. You'll have to get a license from the patent holder of the core invention, OR you can seek to license/sell your improvement to them!

You should hire a patent law firm to research and help you protect your invention by filing a patent application BEFORE speaking with that person or any third parties.

Hi. I do have a question. I invented something about 15 years ago. I made it at home. And I have used it every day ever since. I still use it every day. It's in addition to something that already exists. I have no track record of it so to speak. I no longer have my first prototype if I'm saying that correctly. But I have made more and continue to use them. It is not something I sketched out on a piece of paper, is just something that I made and was very useful in my last two jobs and is very useful in my current job. Different lines of work. By not having my first prototype or a sketch or anything to prove that I am the inventor of this 15 years ago, can there be trouble if I try to patent this?

@@boldpatents Yes I've looked for weeks maybe even months. And nothing. I can't find anything. I know its not out there. Thank you for your time. Now i can look into a patent. What do you recommend? I'm in California. Or are the laws the same?

Is there a special hidden type of patent I would use to submit one that would be considered to be classified for defense purposes DOD. Or do I just type it and patient the encryption code file after encrypting it from public view? SO a file with say 120 pages would encrypt to say 400KB and I would take all the scrambled letters numbers etc from that file and register that. Or do I go through another pathway that is not of the norm?
No, in order to seek patent protection, you've got to submit your invention, written description, claims, and any drawings in clear english (no encryption). Note, patent applications are not published for 18 months from the priority date (initial filing date). The USPTO and DOD will review the application as-filed and will to determine if any subject matter is to be classified and handled under a secrecy order to follow a different publication and route than normal prosecution. Email me for more specific questions on this: jd@boldip.com.

Bold Patents - Patent & Intellectual Property Law ok thanks just curious
Yes
Can ideas ...that are used for teaching a craft ... way of how to do it ... that no one has done it .. can that be patent
Potentially, yes! Method patents are commonly granted by the USPTO. You've got to make sure that if you're going to invest in time/money to acquire patent rights, that the method will be easily detected, so you can spot an infringer and enforce your rights. Sometimes, methods are hard to identify purely from the end product alone, so some inventors decide to keep these methods as trade secret. If you're not sure, you can do the "reverse engineer-ability test". Think, can you take apart the final product/craft and figure out HOW it was done? If YES - then you should try to seek patent protection on it. If NO, then you should likely keep it as a trade secret.
@@boldpatents my idea is to teach others how to use this method ... not to keep it secret
@@outlawkatt317 Well then, COPYRIGHT Law is your play for sure :) You'll want to register your written/visual/audio with the US Library of Congress.

Good news, right? :)
Schedule a time to speak with us here: www.boldip.com/contact.
I'm going to have to go ahead and disagree with the notion that you don't need even a prototype. Unless your only goal is to get a patent vs making money on your invention. Technically, you are right, but that doesn't make it a good idea.
If you haven't even made a prototype yet, what are your patent claims based on? What you think in your head your idea will be in the end? Lets say you get your patent based on that, but as you continue prototyping it and getting feedback from intended customers, and find manufacturability concerns. You will likely revise your idea many times through that process. You can easily design your way out from under your own patent's claims. Or worse yet, later find out there isn't actually a market for your invention like you thought there was.
Great points. I would generally agree, a prototype is smart - especially if it will help add more detail to a patent search or an application.
That said, there are many inventors that have made invented in the same domain/space before and are well aware of how to make/build their invention, they just don’t feel the need to actually make it or prototype it.
Yes, for the vast majority, even those who work in the same industry as their invention can gain valuable insights from building a proof of concept and can even surprise themselves with technical hurdles/solutions they discovered that weren’t previously considered.
I have a great idea that is one of those things that once it's implemented will seem like it was a no brainier like it should have been something that was always not only available but mandatory or at least came standard. I want to get some funding to make it in order to pitch it to the big manufacturers and get it to be a standard safety feature but don't want to risk my idea being stolen on a crowd funding site
The best thing to do is to work with a patent attorney and get a legal opinion on eligibility and patentability. If patentable, then secure patent protection first before going to any manufacturers, trying to raise money, or sharing with crowd funding sites. If not patentable then you can move directly to those 3rd parties. To see if you are a good fit for our firm, schedule 15 minutes here: calendly.com/business-consultations/am06-youtube
