From Idea to Unbreakable IP—Applying Systematic Innovation to Secure Your Market
We help R&D and IP teams move beyond standard legal filings to create patents that are broad, robust, and systematically designed to preemptively block or defensively outmaneuver the competition. We turn innovation risk into a systematic competitive advantage.
📌 Already Facing a Competitor’s Patent?
We provide a non-legal, systematic methodology (based on the principles of TRIZ) to analyze the core functions of a patent and generate superior, non-infringing design alternatives—avoiding costly litigation and achieving true product differentiation.
🛠 Our Systematic IP Strategy
Our consulting service integrates advanced inventive thinking tools with patent strategy to deliver a comprehensive approach to intellectual property.
Patent Fortification & Inventiveness Maximization
We apply Function Analysis and Contradiction Resolution from the TRIZ methodology to your core invention. This process systematically identifies and solves technical contradictions, ensuring your patent claims cover the highest level of inventiveness and the broadest scope possible.
Systematic Design-Around & Patent Working-Around
When faced with an incumbent’s patent, we lead your technical team through a structured process to develop non-infringing solutions. This involves Trimming non-essential functions and applying Inventive Principles to create a solution that is demonstrably and legally different, often resulting in a superior next-generation product.
Future-Proof IP Roadmapping
We use the Trends of Technical System Evolution (TESE) to forecast the future development of your core technology. This allows you to file patents not just for what you have today, but for the next 3 to 5 generations of your product, building a continuous “patent fence” around your market space.
IP Strategy Review & Opinion
A high-level technical review to assess the strength, defensibility, and commercial value of your existing patent portfolio or an acquisition target’s IP. This is focused on identifying key claim language weaknesses and non-obvious strengths.
💰 Flexible & Value-Based Pricing
We share the risk and align our success with yours. Our engagements are structured to incentivize results, not just hours.
- Fixed Strategy Fee: A flat fee for the foundational analysis, workshop delivery, and initial roadmap development.
- Milestone Success Fee: A performance-based fee tied to the delivery of the final non-infringing solution design or the completion of the advanced claim strategy for a new patent filing.
💡 Ideal For
Our specialized methodology is best suited for organizations that value systematic innovation and want to move beyond reactive legal defense.
✅ R&D Teams stuck on seemingly unsolvable technical problems or design conflicts. ✅ Startups/Scale-ups needing a comprehensive IP strategy to attract serious venture capital. ✅ In-House Legal & IP Counsel looking to augment their team with systematic inventive expertise before engaging drafters. ✅ Manufacturing Companies that must launch a non-infringing product quickly to secure a competitive market position. ✅ Businesses burned by past patent rejections due to “obviousness” or claims that were too easily circumvented.
🔍 Typical Results
Our approach delivers quantifiable improvements in the quality and strength of your IP assets.
- Claim Scope: Technical teams generate 3x more non-obvious alternatives during the invention disclosure process.
- Legal Confidence: Litigation risk associated with competitor patents is significantly reduced via systematic, defensible design-arounds.
- Efficiency: Time spent in “trial-and-error” R&D to avoid patents is cut by up to 40% by replacing it with a structured methodology.
- Portfolio Value: Patents filed using this strategic approach are consistently rated as higher-value assets by investors and M&A analysts.
