Is there anywhere to submit inventions and not have them come out three months later in microsoft's name?

Question

I have four inventions that would make alot of money if I could afford to manufacture them or even if I could afford a national commercial but I am unemployed and broke. Everywhere I have called wants 3k to help me get a patent. I wish I could afford that...any other ideas?? Is there any software out there that might let me apply succefully myself? Thanks

Answer 1

Only US Patient office and you really need a lawyer and lawyers do not do that kind of work for free.

Answer 2

a serious patent attorney [the kind whose work is so good and well known as good -- and thus likely won't be infringed on] will cost around $75,000 for the first year with another $75,000 after that to expand coverage to the entire world.

Since you obviously do not have that sort of resources, what you need to do is form a company to raise the money to protect, test, build, and market your inventions. [IE: use someone else's money in exchange for sharing part of the rewards with them.]


If you can't successfully form a company to do this, that's your first clue as to what the hard nosed market of financial investors really thinks of your ideas -- and you'd then be well advised to drop the whole idea.
