What does it mean to Invent?

An inventor is someone who discovers or creates a new method or device for performing a specific task. Wether or not your design concept (idea) reaches market or not, if you created it, you're an inventor. At Protomine we applaud the entrepreneurial spirit of all inventors and designers by offering a platform to success. We beleive that very often inventors and designers are limited by lack of access to information and services or even worse, misled into beleiving there is only one way of achieving success.
We encourage you to research and investigate all of the invention offerings on the web. We beleive, ultimately, you will agree that we offer the most efficient and effective invention development platform on the web.

Why use the Protomine Process?

The Protomine process was created to offer an alternative to expensive "invention submission" and "invention development" companies that offer so much and produce so little. Do the research and we know you'lle see the difference.

What does it cost to develop a product?

Manufacturers follow a complicated and costly product development process called product lifecycle management (plm). This approach encompasses a products complete lifecyle from concept design through manufacturing and disposal of a product. The typical cost for product development starts at around $100,000 for simple concepts and rises dramatically for more complicated concepts.

What are they promising you?

Large organizations such as invention development companies offer costly services promising to develop your concept for $5-$20,000 (a fraction of what it really costs) while producing limited results..

The Reality

Paying high prices to outside companies to "develop" or "patent" your product is often unnecessary if you just want to license your concept. Ultimately the distributor incurs the real costs of development and in return offers a licensing contract. Your job is to present an appealing product presentation and deliver it to the right people!
