Most patents donโ€™t have balls. Mine do. Iโ€™m Rory, a commercial patent strategist for startups, founders, and product innovators who actually want to make moneyโ€”not just file paperwork and hope for the best. Most attorneys will sell you a 20-year patent before youโ€™ve even tested your product. Thatโ€™s not strategy, thatโ€™s sabotage. It can drain your cash flow and strangle innovation before your business even begins. I do it differently. ๐Ÿ”ง What I Offer I create patent strategies with ballsโ€”protection that works with your business, not against it. ๐Ÿ”ฅ Fits your business model and growth stage ๐Ÿ”ฅ Protects while you test, refine, and pivot ๐Ÿ”ฅ Delays big legal spend until youโ€™re ready to scale ๐Ÿ”ฅ Increases your leverage for investors, licensees, and acquirers ๐Ÿ’ผ Proven Packages - with registered attorneys doing the filing โœ… $499 โ€“ 1-Year Patent (Provisional): Fast, flexible startup coverage under the Paris Convention โœ… $4,750 โ€“ Global Patent (PCT): Go international without overcommitting in any single market โœ… $5,000 โ€“ Utility Patent: 20 years of protection in your chosen territory All include: โœ” 1-hour strategy call โœ” Custom 3-year IP roadmap โœ” Clear, honest pricing with no hidden extras ๐Ÿง  Think Like a Strategist Is your product still evolving? โ†’ Go provisional. Ready to scale? โ†’ File PCT. Want to license? โ†’ Iโ€™ll help you frame it to close deals. Iโ€™m not a document pusher. Iโ€™m your commercial IP partnerโ€”the guy who helps you win with patents, not drown in them. ๐Ÿ›  Bonus Services Design with Balls. Prototypes with Balls. Licensing with Balls. All powered by the same no-nonsense, results-driven approach. ๐Ÿ’ฌ What Clients Say โ€œRory explained the process clearly and built a patent strategy that made sense for our business.โ€ โ€œA rare mix of commercial insight and genuine care for our outcome.โ€ โ€œHe saved us thousands compared to traditional attorneysโ€”and we ended up with a stronger plan.โ€ ๐Ÿš€ Why It Works Most patent professionals are trained to protect ideas. Iโ€™m trained to grow businesses. You donโ€™t need a $20,000 legal tome that nobody reads. You need a patent strategy that builds leverage and keeps your upside intact. Want to see how it applies to your business? ๐Ÿ“ž Book a free 1-hour call. Iโ€™ll map out your 3-year IP planโ€”clear, simple, and tailored to your goals. Letโ€™s make you a patent strategy with balls. Why Choose Me โœ” 345+ Upwork projects completed โœ” Top-Rated with hundreds of 5-star reviews โœ” Engineering degree from a top UK university โœ” Deep experience with MVPs, pitch testing, and licensing deals โœ” Trusted by thousands of founders worldwide
