What We Do

KickStart IP helps companies build smart, defensible intellectual property without immediately incurring the high costs of traditional law firms. Instead of paying attorney rates to educate teams or sort through early-stage ideas, we embed practical IP training, invention capture systems, and patent-readiness support directly into how your team builds.

That means better disclosures, clearer inventive concepts, and more strategic use of legal spend when it’s actually time to file. We work upstream so when outside counsel is engaged, the process is faster, more focused, and more cost-effective.

Affordable, upstream IP support that helps your team capture inventions early—before you spend law firm rates.

IP Fundamentals Training

Practical, plain-English training that teaches teams how to think in IP. We produce teams that spot inventions before it’s too late. You’ll learn:

  • What patents protect (and what they don’t)
  • How to recognize patentable ideas early
  • Public disclosure risks and timing
  • How and when to engage patent counsel

Formats

  • Live workshops (founders, engineers, researchers)
  • Team onboarding sessions
  • Accelerator or incubator programming

Innovation Capture

Meet with us to identify novel technical concepts, methods, and workflows. We’ll distinguish meaningful inventions and translate technical discussion into clear invention summaries.

  • Best for: Startups building fast, research teams, and product-led companies.

One-Time

Book a single invention harvesting session. 

Recurring

Set a cadence that works for you; weekly, monthly, quarterly, etc.

IP Roadmapping

We help align inventions with business and product goals.

Researcher Programs

Hands-on support to help universities and researchers protect innovation.
