New Invention Ideas

Do you have an invention idea you've been thinking about for a while?

Getting started with a new idea can be difficult. InventHelp is an invention service company staffed with researchers, animators, writers, website facilitators, and customer service representatives to assist you in submitting your invention idea to companies who have agreed to receive new ideas. We’ve been helping inventors since 1984 – let’s help you next! 

How can InventHelp help you with your new product idea?

InventHelp submits your idea to companies who have agreed to confidentially review InventHelp client ideas.

InventHelp can refer you to an independent patent attorney for patent-related services. Through our Patent Referral Services, inventors have secured more than 10,000 patents.

The InventHelp DataBank has thousands of companies, representing a variety of industries and product categories.

InventHelp attends trade shows in order to establish new contacts
for our Data Bank.

The Virtual Invention Browsing Experience, or VIBE, displays your invention information on interactive kiosks at Licensing Expo in Las Vegas, NV.

InventHelp can print a 3D prototype model, which can be helpful for others to understand the design of your idea.

We prepare a publicity release announcing the availability of your invention idea without disclosing its working details. This release is submitted to trade publications, other media, and an online publicity distribution service.

Our Client Services representatives are here to help you and to answer any questions you may have.

The Invention Process

Check out these tips for getting started with new invention ideas!

What kind of product have you come up with? If that particular industry is flooded with similar ideas, either consider tweaking your idea so it fits in another industry, or add features and value to set it apart from other new products. What can your product offer that others lack? What problem does your new invention solve?

What products are hot right now? Trends are constantly changing, but if you can get a sense for what is going to be popular in upcoming months, you may be able to alter your idea to fit in or stand out among up-and-coming trends.

What do other people think of your idea? Without disclosing too much information, casually ask your trusted friends and family what they think about your invention idea. They may have ideas on alternate uses or improvements which could be made. But, be careful who you approach if you don’t have a patent, and don’t take harsh criticism to heart.

How are you going to proceed from here? Make yourself a checklist and a plan. Remember to cross off each step as it’s completed. It’s much easier to achieve your goals if you write them down. Set both short-term and long-term goals, and remember to make them measurable. How exactly will you achieve your goals? If you’re unsure, InventHelp can help you.

What does your invention idea look like? A rough sketch and a non-working prototype help when describing your idea to others. A sketch can include stick figures and traced drawings; you don’t need to be an artist. A non-working prototype can be made out of cardboard, clay, tape – any material can help make a model of your invention idea. For a more professional approach, InventHelp offers prototype modeling services, Virtual Invention Presentations, and submission brochures.
