Editing Expertise
Generate Effective Prior Art for Publishing
After rating an invention for publication and before clicking a button to launch a disclosure into the public domain, you must consider, if your document is ready for the external audiences, if it reveals too much about the company and your development strategies, if your researchers find it, and when they do, if they understand it. Do you have the time and resources to generate a solid defensive publication?
IP.com’s Editing Services translates the invention disclosure to a defensive publication that performs as effective prior art. We ensure the description is clear, concise, consistent, and correct. Then, when you submit it to the Prior Art Database, you can be confident that your defensive publication protects your Freedom to Operate.

The Quiet Assumption Behind Every Patent Filing: USPS Just Works
The procedure your firm follows is unchanged. The system that procedure relies on is not. And somewhere in that gap, between a compliance culture built for one network and a postal infrastructure actively restructuring into another, is where filings start getting lost.
250,000 Patents and Counting: Why Patent Thickets Are Now an R&D Problem
A modern smartphone is reportedly covered by as many as 250,000 active patents. A quarter of a million overlapping protections, touching everything from the antenna and battery chemistry to the way a finger swipes across a screen, sit between any new device and the consumer who buys it. That is not a competitive moat. That is a minefield. And it has a name: a patent thicket.
