Biography
I do professional-grade, global patent research and patent analytics for inventors, companies, and law firms. My work is typically in the electrical, mechanical, and software arts and I've been a patent researcher for over 14 years. Here're the statistics: patent applications can easily cost you $10,000, but the USPTO only issues patents for about 50% of the applications it receives. Of those patents issued, only 5% are ever monetized! Knowing what relevant prior art exists is important as this allows you to make technology, business, and patenting course corrections early which minimizes your wasted time and money. I believe that solid research is one of the most valuable tools for accelerating innovation and product development. In many cases, THE most valuable. I've staked my business reputation on knowing how and where to dig into key information to provide this competitive advantage for entrepreneurs and companies.
