We understand inhouse IP teams

As an inhouse IP team, you know this.

You hit your filing numbers, but you are judged on whether the portfolio actually protects the business.

R&D only flags what they think is new, so the inventions that matter commercially slip through.

At the budget review, you end up defending filings and costs you never really chose.

What we do for your team

What we add to your IP function.

Filed against your business model

Patents chosen for commercial relevance

We screen every invention against how the company makes money before we file, so the portfolio holds up under audit and due diligence, not only on the filing count.

Invention harvesting

The inventions R&D would miss

We sit with your engineers, surface what is patentable, and run ideation workshops if disclosures fall short. You hit your agreed filing number without chasing R&D.

Fixed budget, your workflow

Cost control without a reset

Modular packages on a fixed annual budget. We fit into your existing process and systems, so you keep your workflow and drop the invoice verification.

How we work with your team

From your business model to filed patents.

A proven methodology, in line with DIN 77006.

01

We map the business model

In a short consulting phase, we agree which building blocks of your business are worth protecting, and the USP that makes them valuable.

02

We harvest and disclose

We sit with your R&D, surface what is patentable, and turn it into invention disclosures, up to the number you agreed.
