Patent Drafting, Filing and Prosecution
AvidInvent provides comprehensive patent drafting and filing support for inventors. Our team comprises highly qualified IP professionals who are also registered Indian Patent agents. Leveraging their expertise in patent drafting and prosecution, our patent agents can advise inventors on developing effective IP strategies for filing patent applications not only in India but also in overseas jurisdictions, ensuring optimal protection aligned with business objectives.
We understand the inventions in depth, interact with scientists and help them evolve IP strategies aligned with the timeline of their inventions.
A patent application is drafted by professionals who have technical as well as IP expertise. Claims are the techno legal part of the patent, and we ensure that claims are broad enough to cover the entire scope of the invention, but avoid existing prior art.
A provisional patent application is usually filed to obtain a priority date, before filing a complete patent application. A provisional patent application can be filed without claims, to get an early priority date.
Our attention to detail and personalized communication with the inventors, helps draft a patent which protects all the aspects of the innovation and thus makes us a stronger partner in guiding client IP efforts.
What We Offer
Patentability Search
A Novelty/Patentability search is conducted to determine if an invention meets the requirements of novelty, usefulness, and non-obviousness and is performed prior to the preparation of patent application.
Freedom to Operate
Freedom to operate search, (FTO search) is a proactive step towards mitigating patent risks, and is critical to new product launch and thus it is important for companies to do it right at the beginning.
Invalidity Search
The goal of an invalidity search is to identify both patent and non-patent documents that invalidate one or more claims of a granted patent.
Landscape Search and Analysis
Landscape analysis is conducted to identify trends in a technology area, established and emerging players, key inventors, geographical trends and more.
Infringement Analysis/ Evidence of Use studies
Infringement Analysis is done to find out the potential infringers and protect the product and is also done to measure the risk of infringement.
Sequence Searches
We have expertise in performing sequence searches and analysis for nucleic acid and amino acid sequences—including peptides, proteins, promoters, regulatory elements, SNPs, polymorphisms, signal sequences, primers, and motifs—to assess novelty, obviousness, freedom to operate, and technology landscape.
Chemical Structure Searches
Specialize in searching and analysis for chemical structures including small molecules, peptides, Markush structures, chemical reactions, route of synthesis.
Competitive Intelligence, Market Intelligence
Competitive Intelligence provides insights into competitors, potential partners , and business and IP trends followed by them, including IP filed by them.
Market Intelligence provides insights into market ecosystem , including details such as IP, pricing, availability of products.
IP Asset Due Diligence, Scientific Research and Analysis
Patent due diligence and scientific information research and analysis are critical for informed decision-making by stakeholders such as investors, R&D directors, and organisations. These analyses can be tailored to specific scientific domains, geographies, or companies, ensuring that stakeholders gain targeted insights into the technological landscape and competitive environment. Due diligence processes may be conducted in a stage gate manner—aligned with key project milestones—or performed periodically to keep pace with evolving market and technology trends. This approach helps identify risks, assess the strength and relevance of IP portfolios, and uncover strategic opportunities for investment, collaboration, or market entry, thereby supporting robust innovation management and business growth.
