Provisional Patent Application (PPA) Drafting & Filing
Secure your priority date and achieve "Patent Pending" status with attorney-crafted precision.
In the United States, patent rights go to the first inventor to file, not the first to invent. A Provisional Patent Application (PPA) is the most strategic way to plant your flag. It instantly secures your official priority date and gives you a 12-month runway to safely pitch investors, test the market, and finalize your prototype without losing your intellectual property rights.
By engaging Optio IP, your provisional application will be drafted by an experienced, U.S.-based patent attorney. We translate your technical mechanics into a legal specification, complete with an initial claim set and drawing shot list, ensuring your priority date is built on a proper foundation.
What this $2,500 flat fee includes:
Direct attorney review of your invention disclosure.
Drafting of the complete provisional specification (Problem/Solution, Differentiating Elements, and Detailed Description).
Drafting of initial independent claims to define the core invention.
Formal preparation and electronic filing with the USPTO. (Note: The USPTO government filing fee—typically $60 to $300 depending on your entity size—will be billed separately at the time of filing.)
