Editing Expertise
Generate Effective Prior Art for Publishing
After rating an invention for publication and before clicking a button to launch a disclosure into the public domain, you must consider, if your document is ready for the external audiences, if it reveals too much about the company and your development strategies, if your researchers find it, and when they do, if they understand it. Do you have the time and resources to generate a solid defensive publication?
IP.com’s Editing Services translates the invention disclosure to a defensive publication that performs as effective prior art. We ensure the description is clear, concise, consistent, and correct. Then, when you submit it to the Prior Art Database, you can be confident that your defensive publication protects your Freedom to Operate.

History shows that discoveries like MRI and CRISPR only reached patients because universities were empowered—through the Bayh–Dole Act—to patent their breakthroughs and partner with industry. Undermining that framework today would not just alter the flow of money, it would jeopardize the next wave of life-saving technologies.
Why China’s “Global AI Plan” Puts Your IP in the Crosshairs, And Why You Should Care.
