Three Things All Inventors Should Know About Patents

# data[].attributes.body
Clients rely on Enhance Product Development to provide them with support through the many phases of a new product’s development. Inventors and businesses that work with Enhance Product Development may find the following two facts about patents helpful.

1. The United States operates on a first-to-file system, wherein the individual or group that files a product patent before everyone else is typically the one to secure it. Though certain circumstances mandate that professionals wait to file, the general consensus is that inventors should file often, and file early.

2. A provisional application for patent allows an inventor the opportunity to file a 12-month pending application to establish an early priority date. At the end of the 12-month period, the inventor is able to convert the provisional application into a utility patent that then claims the priority date of the original provisional application. This is a powerful tool for an inventor to test the marketplace when developing and commercializing their inventions without having to incur the expensive fees of the utility patent.
