New product development is an uncertain endeavor and the use of Inventor Start Kit’s services typically does not result in a license agreement, manufacturing, sales, or profit to the inventor. Inventor Start Kit does not provide legal advice and does not provide analysis of the feasibility, marketability, patentability or profitability of invention ideas submitted to it. Such advice may be provided by an independent patent attorney. Inventor Start Kit’s research, development, and presentation services are provided for an upfront fee paid by the client.
