You'll love our brief, simple, and easy-to-follow guide on how to check if anybody else has registered your idea.

Patent searching is also known as a Prior Art Search. It is a prerequisite to getting a patent with most national and international Intellectual Property bodies. As it satisfies the requirement that the idea must be new/novel.

Most inventors assume that because their idea isn’t on the market, nobody has thought of it before, when in fact 95% of patents never even get to market, so it’s absolutely vital that you conduct as thorough a search before applying for your patent.

A recent study by legal outsourcers UpCounsel found that only 5% of patents make any money, which means a staggering 95% of patents out there never made any money but will still stop you from registering your idea!
