About

Invention Evaluator was developed to empower inventors. There are some great innovators out there, many of whom need help to take the next steps beyond the creation of a cool invention. Unfortunately, there are many unscrupulous people who prey upon these people and profit from the lack of understanding about what is involved with protecting and commercialising intellectual property. Invention Evaluator is here to help the inventor, to give them the information they need about their great idea.

Using Invention Evaluator is easy!

After you have completed the registration process on our website, you will be logged in to your personal dashboard. This is where you manage your invention submissions and reports. You can submit as many inventions for evaluation as you like. You can start a new submission any time. When you do, you will go to the submission page. This has a series of questions to help you to describe your invention, upload information you may have on it, and give us all the information we need to get an analyst working on a report.

You can save your submission in draft form, log out, and log back in anytime you wish. The status for that invention will be listed as 'Saved' on your dashboard. You can open it up, and continue editing it as many times as you wish. Once you have fully completed this submission information, you simply submit the information using the button below. Please note: once you submit the invention for evaluation, you can no longer edit the submission, so be careful to check that it is complete and accurate. The status of that invention will be listed as 'Pending' on you dashboard.

Within 10 business days, your submission will be assigned to an analyst, who will read the information you have provided. They follow a process to analyse the invention, which includes searching databases and the internet for information, and distilling this into a report for you. This report breaks down the analysis into three sections:
1.The technical merits and challenges of your invention
2.The Intellectual Property rights that you may have available
3.The commercial potential and pathways available to commercialise your invention

When a report is complete, you will be notified by email. You can log in anytime to view and download the report.

You can submit a new invention anytime through the dashboard by clicking on New Submission. Each invention submission costs $199.

You can also update your profile, and view your account details through your online dashboard. (more)
