In plain English

What your Chief IP Officer actually does.

Your Chief IP Officer works on one thing: the hidden value in your technology. Your data, your patents, your know-how. They find it, they protect it, and they turn it into money.

Lawyers file, accountants count, and nobody creates an entire revenue line out of your IP. That last part is their whole job.

FAQ

Questions.

What does it cost to work with you?

The diagnostic call is free. If you want more, the 90-day IP audit is $6,500 fixed, and the embedded part-time Chief IP Officer is $8,000 a month, against $475,000 a year for the same executive full-time. All pricing is on this page; no surprises on the call.

Are you a law firm?

No. We do not file or prosecute. We decide what is worth owning and what it should earn, then bring counsel in to execute.

We have no patents yet.

Then month one is patent mining. Most companies are already sitting on four to nine unfiled assets.

What if there is nothing there?

We tell you on the first call. A clean no is a complete answer.

Who is this for?

Deep tech and AI companies from pre-Series A to exit, and corporates holding dormant portfolios.

How fast is the first read?

Eight minutes for a scored patentability read. Thirty days for a full asset map.

Do you work outside the US?

Yes. The firm runs across the US and UK.

Is the free call a sales pitch?

No. It’s 30 minutes: you describe what you’ve built, we give you a valuation range and your next three moves. You keep the advice whether or not we ever work together. If we can’t help you, we say so on the call.

What happens after I book?

You get an instant calendar confirmation. No prep needed. Don’t write anything, don’t send documents. Come as you are; we do the digging on the call.

What is IP monetization?

IP monetization is the process of generating revenue from intellectual property assets: patents, proprietary data, trade secrets, and know-how. This happens through licensing, sales, or strategic partnerships rather than letting them sit idle.

How do you license patents for revenue?

We group your patents into commercial clusters, map each one to industries and likely licensees, set the pricing, then approach target companies with an offer that saves them years of research.

How does IP strategy increase company valuation?

Structured IP creates barriers that investors and acquirers can put a price on. Companies with organized IP portfolios and licensing revenue consistently achieve 2x or higher valuation multiples compared to peers without IP strategy.

What is the difference between IP protection and IP monetization?

IP protection is filing patents and trademarks to legally defend your assets. IP monetization goes further: it turns those protected assets into revenue through licensing, strategic partnerships, and valuation leverage.
