A bolt of lightning struck me one day and I came up with a pretty cool invention. I started the whole process with InventHelp and it's been easy going. Right now, I'm in the licensing and potential sale of my invention. They're designing a website right now that I can log into and send to people. And I have my brochure which is being marketed and shown to companies. I'm about 30 grand in the hole, so if it pays off, then it'll be awesome. It's a slow process, but there are things that need to take time.

I was notified that everything is over the phone after covid. And most of their locations are shutting down because of it. I gave them $975 for them to research if my invention was patentable and make a book report that they copy and pasted the name of my invention in place… I was told a board of representatives were going to take my invention seriously and handle the research professionally. My invention is for breastfeeding moms. And they hand page after page about birth rates, percentages on how many babies breastfeed…

Response from InventHelp

This complainant contracted with our company for the preparation of a Basic Information Package Report (BIP) as well as a Preliminary Patentability Search & Opinion (PPSO) report. The BIP report assembles basic information about an invention and the history of its development in a report format. In addition, a Preliminary Patentability Search & Opinion was conducted for the idea by an independent patent attorney with whom we refer our clients’ patent work. Upon completion, this complainant received copies of his BIP report and Preliminary Patentability Search and Opinion.

The complainant’s concerns stem from the belief that her Basic Information Package (BIP) would include more extensive information on her specific invention and that a review board would be preparing her report, which is inaccurate. Our contract, which this complainant signed, as well as our company literature which was furnished to her prior to signing the contract, make it very clear how the BIP report is prepared and what information is included in the BIP report. Furthermore, we shared a sample Basic Information Package Report with her prior to signing our contracts to provide her with a better overview of what the Basic Information Package report looks like upon completion.

Nevertheless, after receiving this complaint, we contacted her and offered to revise her Basic Information Package at no additional cost, however the complainant declined our offer.

At this time, we are unsure there is anything else we can do.

Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention.

Sincerely,

Maura Robbins

Compliance Manager

Inventhelp has been great from the very start. They have been honest and upfront about everything, and I was able to feel comfortable and trust when talking about my Invention. The process has been very quick and in about 8 short months they have gotten my brochure sent to 25 companies and about to send to more companies. My patent has been accepted, and that was done through Inventhelp referral! And to top it off every time I have called to check up and see how things are going they are always super nice and helpful and actually give me details on exactly what they're doing right now, especially Maura **, she was so great and even followed up with me by email! Inventhelp is a great company! Thank you!

I was introduced to InventHelp over two years ago. I began with one invention which sparked an idea for a second invention. Being a novice in this area, I received a lot of friendly help from the start by Tim and Angelia. I realized that there were some necessary changes to be made in order to make my invention more: people helpful & useful, easier and cheaper installation, do it yourself project, attractive to the media. I may have taken too much time in making the changes. I lost some of the friendly help I experienced earlier, but the one person who went above and beyond to help me complete my project was Maura from Client Services. Now, a satisfactory invention.

Ms. Maury ** was VERY helpful. She fully explained to me the process of the patent application process & what the "micro and/or the" small entity terminology meant. Not only did she lift my spirits and strongly encouraged me to continue with the patent process, she informed me of what category I fell into and what everything meant. Ms. ** is a GODSEND!!! This nice and intelligent woman is really excellent at her job and should be recommended for a huge raise for the extraordinary job that she does on a daily basis. In my opinion, she is extraordinary and is an asset to your company.

I'm am extremely honored that I had the opportunity for her to speak with me about my and any issues that I had concerning the patent application process. Ms. ** is AWESOME!!!
