Patent Machine for US inventors

File it yourself, or hand your attorney a ready draft and pay far less.

Patent help from Ric Richardson, the inventor who took Microsoft to court over his patent (Uniloc v. Microsoft) and settled.

Not plain AI: a team of agents working from the know-how of the inventor who beat Microsoft in court, holds over 200 patents and has helped 700 inventors for free.

Patent Machine walks you through your invention and turns it into a USPTO-ready provisional draft. You write it, you own it, and you decide who files it. Prices are in US dollars.

The USPTO filing fee is extra

The US government charges its own fee to file a provisional. You pay it directly to the USPTO when you file. Reduced fees depend on meeting the USPTO's small or micro entity requirements. Check your eligibility and the current fee schedule before filing.

Micro entityUS$65
Small entityUS$130
Large entity (standard)US$325

Two ways to use your draft

File it yourself. Follow the guide, upload your draft to USPTO Patent Center, and pay the government fee.

Hand it to your attorney. Your attorney starts from a complete draft instead of a blank page, so you pay for checking, not for writing.
