Why Search Patents?

One of the fundamental requirements for securing patent protection is proving 'novelty'. Patent applicants must be able to demonstrate that their invention has never been disclosed in public before their application was filed. This requirement obliges inventors to conduct a thorough investigation of existing prior art not only in patent offices worldwide but also in academic and research organizations, as even the prior publication of a poster at an academic conference can impede on obtaining a patent.

Pay Per Patent Proof™

Pay-Per-Patent-Proof™ is a proprietary service designed to amend a key market failure involving the surprisingly high rate of patent application rejections and the high costs associated with the patent application process. Patentest is the first and only patent searching agency to redesign its services according to the ideology that the inventor pays only for an undisputable agreed-upon search result. Billing occurs only if the patentability search yielded a find. In other words, we will conduct a worldwide patentability search and you will receive a detailed, Patentest In-depth™ search report. However, only if our information specialists are able to show you that someone else had already thought of your invention before you, you will be charged a fixed price for the search. Otherwise, our search report will be provided free of charge.

Why Search with Patentest?

The most common patentability search solution is to request a patentability search from a professional third party patent searcher. Third party patent searchers charge inventors a fixed/hourly rate and provide the inventor with a detailed report concerning any available prior art in the field of the invention which might prevent the invention from being considered novel or being considered to involve an inventive step.

The purpose of this article to explain how inventors can dramatically improve their negotiating starting point as they approach investors by obtaining two fundamental, and very affordable, documents.
