Rick Lazansky • EVP Product Development - Xpedion Design Systems
"Xpedion has found Patentry to efficiently deliver the highest quality results in
the creation of a patent portfolio.
Our principal engineers appreciate the concise interaction on deeply technical
materials. I appreciate the efficacious use of their time. Patentry helps up
focus on the business problem and its solution, beyond just the invention and
technology. Peter understands the foundational aspects of our technology and
science, creating an invaluable wall of patents around our core technology. Our
relationship with Patentry is growing, accelerating the protection of the very
significant inventions of our worldwide engineering team."
Rahm Shastry • President & CEO - Tharas Systems, Inc.
"Tharas wanted to obtain an early filing date on very short notice in
order to build barriers and protect our IP rights for the new products. I
was pleased that Patentry swiftly responded to our needs and competently
accomplished the tasks under a rigid schedule constraint."
Warren Savage • President & CEO - IP extreme
"We operate as a global company with customers in Asia and research in Europe. Patentry worked with our German inventors to file a US utility patent in part taking advantage of the latest VoIP technologies and an encrypted link to the United States Patent and Trademark Office. In this way we met the requirements both of domestic filing and prepared for international patent filings prior to first sale of the product."
Steve Yankovich • VP & Founder - Movaris
"Patentry identified an Office Action requirement before our original filing external counsel became aware of the need and assigned new staffing. The net effect was more important than saving money: Patentry provided more timely response to the PTO. The goal here is always to make the PTO the bottleneck. Putting the ball back in their court is my objective. Patentry prepared and filed the amendment in response to the first office action without requiring an extension. A big differentiator in my mind is that Patentry helps us discover IP we have created by training our technical staff on what is IP and how it can be protected, playing the role of our virtual intellectual property management department. I've worked with two large firms and three attorneys and none of them suggested such a seminar for my staff. Time spent on preparing an application is less with Patentry because of technical skills. On a per patent basis we save money but more importantly, Patentry represents a reduced load on the technical staff. We recommend Patentry's business model and professional services to any startup protecting its investors and business plan."
Paul Sakamoto • CEO - Inovys
"Receiving a patent application allowance within a year of filing is twice as fast as I have seen previously. Inovys was granted US 6,750,797 in large part due to the efforts of our IP director, Mr. Hwang. He piloted the application through the jungle of the drafting and filing process. His background and technical savvy allowed him to coordinate the efforts of the inventor and our external patent counsel extremely efficiently. His excellent attention to detail, technical insight, business judgment, and familiarity with the patent procedure and language caused our application to be allowed rapidly and with little burden on our other staff.
"Patents are a key part of securing each round of financing. It's important that patents pending have a direct bearing on revenue forecasts and margins in the financial model. Patentry has the maturity and experience to relate technology innovation to its potential impact in the selling and pricing domain."
Rob Anue • CTO - Ultralight Outfitters
"We have filed two patents through Patentry and are very pleased with their ability to translate from the inventors' view of what is novel to address the requirements of patent filing forms and formal claims language. At Ultralight Outfitters we visualize taking the burden of camping and hiking down by an order of magnitude, by providing an system of ultralight backpacking gear. Our mission is to design and sell a system of ultralight backpacking gear that will make it comfortable and possible for more people to experience the beauty and renewal of backpacking into the wilderness. Patentry helped us by providing a single solution for our patent needs; they came in, took the time to understand our business and our products, and wrote patents to protect our product line and strategy. They did a great job by taking charge of conceiving and executing our patents, and allowed us to keep our key engineering and management talent focussed on getting products out the door."
Brian Ebert • President - CommStack
"Like any advanced company we have lots of interesting ideas which must be prioritized by looking at the business opportunity it offers. With Patentry serving as our virtual IP department, we enjoy sound business consulting in addition to familiarity with patent examining procedure. Having Patentry "on our staff" allows us to prosecute intelligently and the continuing relationship gives us a team rather than simple client relationship. Mr. Hwang's deep startup experience streamlines both our productivity and provides a perspective that is more comfortable and distinguishes him from attorneys. "
Vincent S. Darago - CTO - Global Learning -
"Beyond thinking through what has been invented, PATENTRY leads us to think about what else needs to be invented to create a defensible and profitable business."
Don Organ - Chief Software Architect - Saratoga, CA
"From my perspective as an engineer, the key advantages are knowing both what might be patentable and more importantly what is worth patenting. Both are out of day to day experience of developers. Beyond that, is the efficiency of transmitting the details to an experienced industry veteran. Patentry makes it a much more economical process."
Andre Gunther - Senior Member of the Technical Staff - San Jose, CA
"Working with Mr. Hwang made everyone more efficient and we completed several patent applications more economically than ever before. This increased my own productivity and lowered our cost."
