Thank you for the clear, concise, and practical explanations! Very helpful for me, as I will be amending the claims myself (in spite of your advice!) since an attorney had told me it's a long shot but I want to give it a try anyway without spending a lot of $.

Hi everyone hope all is well. I'm currently writing my own provisional patent and I'm confused on a few things and I need help. 1)When writing a provisional patent how can I claim all my ideas if I'm still improving my product? 2) Do I need to mention all the uses of the product (example- im patenting the idea of shares on the stock market. Do I need to mention how to purchase stocks and what happens when you sell them?) This is the last thing I'm working on when writing my patent so I hope I can get a response

If I may share my views. Ideas are not patentable.

You don't put claims in PPA

You don't have to mention everything about your invention while filing PPA, just give a brief idea about your invention, few drawings, flowcharts etc. and you are fine

Your Provisional Patent Application (PPA) should be as thorough and comprehensive as possible, because someday, you may end up in court, and that PPA could come under scrutiny. The more technical information you can include, the better you can explain and describe the workings of your invention, the better. Filing a PPA gives you a year to figure out if you should file for a full-blown Nonprovisional Patent Application (NPA), which can be expensive. A PPA does not require all the formalities of a full-blown NPA, and so it does not require claims. But, if you ever decide to file in another country, some other countries require any patent filed (whether PPA or NPA) to include claims, or the country views the patent application as junk, possibly barring you from getting a patent in that country. Keep in mind that this is just outside the US. Easy solution? I recommend adding claims to your PPA. It helps you get started in the real patent process, because it's the claims that define the actual invention. It's the claims that will be rejected or approved in the end. If you get one or more claims approved, you get a patent. Whether your invention merits a patent is a huge discussion of its own. If the idea is too "abstract" and is not sufficiently practical and useful, the USPTO won't issue a patent for it. Having an "idea" for an invention is fine, as long as the actual invention is a practical application of the idea. If you're still not sure of whether to file, look for some other videos on KZfaq about what qualifies as an invention. The USPTO also has it's own share of useful help and videos, at www.uspto.gov/patents . Good luck!

Could I know most of OA is before the publication or after?

@InventorsQuickTips Ай бұрын

many times an OA is received after publication, but they can occur before publication sometimes

@@InventorsQuickTips thank you, I didn’t get OA from USPTO but UK office did ask me to amend the claims before the publication. Maybe the claims are not correct
