Services for founders & SMEs

IP Audit & Trade Secrets Review

Not sure what's actually protectable in your business? We run a deep-dive audit of your technical assets and confidentiality practices, then translate the legal risk into plain English — so you know exactly what to protect and how.

Best for: founders pre-raise, or after a key hire/departure.

Book an IP Audit

Patent Drafting

Rigorous, technically precise patent applications for UK, US, and EU filing — written to hold up under examination, not just to look complete.

Best for: first-time filers and founders building a defensible moat.

Consult

Invention Strategy & Ideation

Before you file anything, we help you shape, refine, and prioritise your inventions so your first (and future) filings build a genuinely high-value portfolio — not just a pile of patents.

Best for: early-stage teams deciding what's worth protecting.

Consult

Trademark Strategy

Brand protection that scales as fast as your market share — so your name, logo, and product identity are locked down before a competitor gets there first.

Best for: pre-launch and early-growth brands.

Consult

Freedom to Operate (FTO)

Launching something new? We check the existing IP landscape so you're not walking into someone else's rights by accident.

Best for: founders about to launch or raise a funding round.

Consult

Introduction to Intellectual Property (Course)

A practical, plain-English course covering the IP basics every founder needs — ideas, protection, and growth strategy — with no legal jargon.
