We have updated our Patent Fee Schedule for 2026 with a new offering for early-stage companies: professional preparation assistance and filing of a US Provisional Patent Application for inventors who would like to generate their own application draft using a generative-AI tool like Idea Clerk.

The service, priced at $1,500 (excluding USPTO fees), includes guided preparation for use of the AI tool, enhanced review of your generated application to identify gaps and strengthen claims, and professional filing with the USPTO.

This hybrid approach makes patent protection more accessible without sacrificing professional oversight. Rather than choosing between DIY and full-service prosecution, you get the efficiency of AI-assisted drafting paired with expert review—all at a cost that works for early-stage ventures.

As your company and IP needs grow, we're ready to expand these services into a more comprehensive strategy.
