Great video but the audio quality is very low... Try a closer mic placement or a room with less reverb. Thanks!!

Some friendly feedback:
Editor needs to turn down the music and that's one heck of an echo chamber you got there. Other that that, thank you for taking the time to make a video instructing others on the basic steps of patenting. Godspeed!

If I make a "washcloth" the week after the person who made the very first "bath towel." Could I patent the "washcloth" or is it too similar to the towel?

If no one has made a wash cloth after the twenty year patent embargo is over, could I patent it then or would it be recognized as "public domain?"

And if it would be considered "public domain, " could I do business with a company (if for whatever reason it was it was never made, ) without that company telling me they don't like the idea... Then steal it?

Thank you for all the information. I was wondering if you have an idea to improve a current product design for better functionality is this a process to be used for the new patent idea? The idea would utilize some exciting products on the the market now but it would be redesigned in a way that is different from the original idea, incorporating a better idea to offer more qualities and better uses.

Thank you for this valuable introductory videos. It really helped me searching for a specific patent.

Your video title is In-Depth Patent Search Tutorial, but I think your video is In-Depth Advertisement for your firm.

I appreciate the information.. Is it possible to get a patent for something that was already patented for another use? For example, something that was used for clothing, but your invention is similar but used for something entirely different.

Please loose that background music and work on the audio
Sounds like you’re in an empty room

But other than that I actually enjoyed listening what you had to say
It was informative

Thanks

Thanks for the information! One question: Are other non provisional patent applications public (to be able to search) ?

[duzergroup]

Thanks for the helpful tips! Really enjoyed the patent search blog article as well.

So if you've got your invention filed with a PPA(s) and want to get a full blown patent(s) after multiple PPA refilings (say over the course of two to three years) and already having commercialized it. Is that possible?

[lostcase]

Thank you so much. I was very shocked as to find employers may have rights to patent, if its job related. What if you left said job, then proceeded to go through with the patent, is there a time frame? Thank you.

Great resource! Thanks for all the tips and the free patent search resources.

Hmm Seems like my wife and I need help with this. We have an app and software to save lives that can be used worldwide. Should we tried filling provisonal patent ourselves until the investors give us money? We have investors interested but we just dont want to keep putting it out there without protection

[kevinraney]

What if it's an idea that is gonna take a little time to build and test? If the patent search comes back clean how does one get a working prototype and risk wasting a lot of time and money if someone else beats you to it? I guess I'm asking can an idea with detailed engineered drawings be enough to obtain a patent?

[awfab]

I got 3 more days to finish my nonprovisional patent lol
I know how do do a patent search but what do I submit the patent number of inventions as close as possible to mine?
And where do I submit it in line. On the uspto website it shows everthing they need in order but nothing about a patent search results I need to put in.

[lovingitonketo]

your website is not working.... So, ahhh how do we follow through with you on a patent search and other?

[dallin-farris]

I am a patent broker, I'd love to chat with Bold Patents about ways to work together. Great video!

[flynneugene]
