Thanks Gene! Come back soon! Thanks Steve for amazing programming. Thanks John for your contributions!
Thank you so much for commenting!
Yes please have him back!!!!
I was shocked by a comment where someone asked if you can file one PPA for more than one invention. Filing one PPA for multiple inventions? And I am assuming they can be totally different inventions? The answer by Stephen was yes, "but if it goes to filing for a non-provisional patent, the USPTO may require you to choose just one invention. But then you can file a continuation." For new time inventors who have so many inventions, this can be extremely cost-effective to put multiple inventions in one PPA!!!! This is wonderful news to me. And I will have to research what the continuation is.
Thank you so much InventRight for all your videos and interviews with different people, and audio books. I have learned so much and it is helping me move forward with my first PPA and invention ideas. Of which I will file for multiple ideas, if I have it right.
I will be calling soon for coaching consultation.
Thank you so so much for all the information you put out to us!!!! I love you guys!
Great stuff. I would like to see a video on how to draft a PPA, line by line, if you haven't already done so.
IP watchdog is 💡amazing 💎😉 and its really assisting me with my PPA! Thank you Stephen Andrew and Gene!
Yes, it's a phenomenal resource! Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the comment Larry. I'm glad you are finding our assistance helpful. Good luck and keep inventing!
This was invaluable. Please have Gene back.
Absolutely great idea!
Hi Chito. I'm always happy to join Stephen. I'm sure I'll be back in the coming months. In the meantime, you are in great hands with Stephen. He has much to teach you. Soak it all in!
@@genequinn1238 YES!! Please come back! This was amazing.
Stephan and Andrew I'm so thankful to learn so much from your videos. The information you both share with all of us helping with our invention is much appreciated. 💖Maggie
97% patents worthless . How much has patent attorneys contributed to this statistics? Or is it all inventors fault? The inventor does not know drafting well and the attorneys claim they dont know about the invention cos they are not the inventor. This Gap is the billion dollar market. Attorneys are not writing for their own inventions. How will they draft in your besr interest a good patent? Ideally the inventor should write his own patent by learning it or becoming a certified attorney. Else we are just one of the statistics.
How should we file a subsequent PPA if we discovered a better embodiment down the road and does the prior PPA act against the subsequent PPA as a prior art?
Excellent advice there. The best one I have found on the subject. So so helpful!!
Extremely valuable information. I am working on my very first PPA. The details and various scenarios that have been described in your presentation is guiding me on how to proceed and advance quicker than I initially assumed. Thank you! There was mention of the importance of images. In the future, would you discuss the expedient, cost effective ways in accomplishing drawings and images to present the range of ones idea?
Find someone on Fiverr. They do it very inexpensively,have them sign an NDA with work for hire language.
Glad it was helpful!
On it. Thank you.
Thanks for listening, and good luck with the PPA!
WE WANT GENE BACK!!
Gene is the man!
@@inventRight I'm from Australia and I just filed my PPA. I'm planning o having a patent in the US and maybe Canada. Are you aware if Gene takes overseas clients
Loved hearing it, would love to hear more about european side. Coming from here, filing here, entering US from here, patents and so for China and India?
Thank you guys for all the value here, absolute top course.
The questions everybody are asking....
Q1. WHAT IS THE FILING FEES OF A PPA?
A1. 75$ us, no tax, nothing more if you do it online yourself on USPTO.com website. (price in 2020).
Q2. What is the price of a "regular, real deal, patent"?
A2. Filing fees + patent attorney = 10 000$ to 50 000$
Conclusion:
Write a cheap PPA
Then, you have 12 months to inspire a company to get involve and pay you royalties and the expensive patent.

Yes!
Could you get a ppa and they license a app idea to a company?
I have a question on claiming how a apparatus works. We know that a product can be used in many ways. Many use cases. Lets say it can operate in 2 ways. Can the claim cover one of the ways although the product can work in other ways? If the claim is written to cover the first way, it brings out the inventive step of the product. But the product can also operate in a slightly different way. So hope my question is clear and seriously like to get some advice. Thanks!
That was great. Lots of great information.
Is the way USA claims are written different than all other countries? Eg. All dependent claims refer to the independent claim under the USA approach. But the rest of the world patent office base on another approach. May i know the rationale ?
Question can file one PPA for more than one invention?
I’m not a patent attorney but yes you can. I’m not giving legal advice.
Just remember if that provisional patent application ever goes to a non-provisional patent application the US PTO most likely will make you choose one invention. But then you can always file for continuation.

Hello Angel,
I don’t understand your question?
I have listened for hours to licensing/inventing/patents videos and this specific video is out of park! Very in depth and practical in multiple esoteric areas - law, patents and manufacturing. Yes, if you want to be a professional in this field, we must understand the technical details.Thank you very much!

That was a great Podcast. Much love and appreciation to inventRight and Gene!
Thanks for listening
Thanks for taking the time to listen to the broadcast. Cheers.
Thank You Gene and everyone involved.
Thanks for listening Step! Good luck with your invention!
Exactly what I needed to find out for my inventions. Thank you Gene, Stephen and Andrew.
Great information guys thank you.
Thanks for watching!
When you attack a problem and create an invention that solves it, you're on offense and you've put a puck in the net. When you write your patent, you're on defense playing goalie, trying to be ready to keep every other possible shot out. The challenge is figuring out how big the net is.
Love it! - Andrew Krauss, inventRight Co-Founder
Working on my PPA right now!
50:00 My own personal theory on why the USPTO often rejects with a technology that seems unrelated is, similar to what Gene said, they don't have a lot of time. Being probably years behind the docket and severely understaffed, my personal theory is that the USPTO has an unwritten "First, reject" policy. Not because they are bad people, but because they know a lot of patents are junk or are for obvious, non-novel things, and if we're honest, the world doesn't really need them. So the thinking might be, if you really, REALLY, believe in your idea, that it's a great idea, you will be the person to fight past that first office rejection and push through. Those that subconsciously know, or suspect, their idea isn't THAT great, are more likely to throw in the towel at that point. It's kinda a win-win-win because the world doesn't need more junk patents, it helps the USPTO push through the pile (helping reduce the processing lag time for GOOD inventions, btw), and frees up the inventor to move onto other things. Those with a great idea will push through and succeed. That's my theory, at least. 🙂
Wonderful content! Thanks for providing realistic expectations of the process and best practices!
Great one...
Guys, if the invention comes in 3 versions...
Should I include all 3 versions in a single PPA with all details?
Thanks!
All Ears...Thanks you InventRight.Family..
Thanks for listening
Thanks for listening William. Good luck with your invention and the PPA!
How do I incorporate a bus. product name Within an original bus. name, if such a thing? All under one umbrella.
53:20 hahaha ridiculous. So funny 😂
“I claim the device that I have disclosed”. I love it lol
Thanks for the info!
Question, Can I file one PPA application for more than one invention?
Yes
Thanks guys. You are so helpful!
Thanks guys
Are patent examiners, at the US PTO?
yes. go on their website USPTO and get educated for free
How do you get drawings done without losing your idea?
I've never seen anyone that does drawings for inventors steal an idea before. Not once in 24 years have i seen this. - Andrew Krauss, inventRight Co-Founder ( Call, email, book an appointment or request more info about how we can help by visiting us here. inventright.com/contact/ )
Gene, thank you for sharing your video. It was a very insightful and it educated video. It was interesting and helpful, regarding my invention. Hope to watch another another video soon. Thank you again. Stay safe. 💖Maggie
Great content again, Can you please give some insight on filing PPAs as EU citizen, can I enter US field from here? What about european market, do you guys have experience with the licensing processes here and is it similar or are there some nuances different that need to be taken into considerration?
Great podcast. In a future podcast with Gene, I would like to hear his thoughts about considerations with the next step: filing a non-provisional and/or PCT application, and licensing with and without your invention under application
Great information and insight on the PPA. Particularly on the consequence of not accurately describing the product! Starts at about 8:00
First rate info, many thanks to Gene, Stephen and Andrew! I hope to join all of you and escape the 9-5 eventually :)
Am i right that most Patent attorneys do not try their best to make sure your patent succeeds using all the tricks up their sleeves? Whats in it for them if they do?
Tremendous presentation. Thanks for all you do Steve!!!!
Yes, have him please come back and to help us how to describe our claim or claims in a PPA.
I am not a patent attorney, and I’m not giving legal advice. Most provisional patent applications that I have written do not include claims. They’re not required.
@@inventRight Thank you for the reply. Mainly curious to know what is or is not considered a ‘claim’.
I would google what a claim is in a patent.
This should explain everything.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you thank you thank you
Very informative and great on patents stuff.
TY Curtis. - Andrew Krauss, inventRight Co-Founder
Unbelievable for a company that purports to emphasize sakes, marketing, drawings and outsourcing design work level up your presentations so unprofessional and under utilization of the visual medium
We are an education company. We hoped you enjoyed learning from Gene - he is brilliant.
