Houston, TX — Built for research institutions, ventures, and IP practitioners

Vainture takes an invention from disclosure to a practitioner-ready filing.

Three chapters, one platform. Evaluate commercialization and patentability. Route the invention to the right filing instrument. Prepare the application for a licensed practitioner to review, sign, and file.

Start with an evaluation, then continue into filing strategy and drafting.

Disclosure to filing, in three chapters

One platform carries an invention the whole way — and hands off to a practitioner as the final step.

Each chapter stands on its own, and each feeds the next. Vainture never files and never gives legal advice — every output is prepared for licensed-practitioner review, signature, and filing.

Chapter 01

Evaluate

Two engines score the invention. Vainture Signal answers whether to commercialize; Vainture Patent answers whether to file — each an independent, evidence-backed verdict in minutes.

See the engines

Chapter 02

Route

A short strategy interview plus the engine's outputs produce a recommended filing pathway across eight options — reasoning cited to statute and MPEP, §101 eligibility flags raised, confidence never overstated.

See filing strategy

Chapter 03

Prepare

A guided inventor interview drives section-by-section drafting grounded only in the disclosure, checked by a live accuracy panel, reviewed by a practitioner, and exported as page-numbered USPTO-order DOCX/PDF.

Chapter 01 — Evaluate

Commercialization and patentability are distinct decision gates. We score both.

Most institutions answer these questions in different rooms, with different teams, on different timelines. Vainture runs them in parallel — independent verdicts, citation-grade evidence, in minutes.

Commercialization Engine

Vainture Signal

Should we commercialize this?

In about three minutes, we tell you whether a disclosure has real commercial legs — naming the actual market, real competitors, named investors, and likely funding sources.

Patentability Engine

Vainture Patent

Should we file a patent on this?

In about five minutes, we search seven prior art databases and tell you whether the invention is novel enough to defend at the patent office — with the supporting references called out.

Chapter 02 — Route

A provisional is not right for every invention. We recommend the instrument that is.

The Filing Strategy router combines the patent engine's outputs with a short, plain-language interview — budget, timeline, foreign interest, product visibility, development stage — and returns a single recommended pathway with per-option reasoning. Decision support for practitioner confirmation, never legal advice.

Eight pathways it can recommend

ProvisionalNon-provisional utilityDesignUtility + designPCT pathwayPlantTrade-secret considerationInsufficient information

Including the honest outcomes — a trade-secret route where patenting is weak, or “practitioner consultation required” when the inputs can't support a confident recommendation.

Cited to authority

Every option is grounded in citable authority — 35 U.S.C. §§101, 102, 111, 112, 161, 171; MPEP sections; PCT and Paris Convention basics — so a practitioner can verify the reasoning, not just read a conclusion.

§101 eligibility flags

Subject-matter-eligibility risk is surfaced explicitly: diagnostics and natural correlations under Mayo / Myriad, and software / AI abstract-idea risk under Alice. A flag prompts practitioner attention — never a conclusion.

Honest confidence

Confidence is capped and, on missing inputs or insufficient prior-art coverage, withheld rather than faked. §102(b) deadline urgency is escalated when a one-year bar is closing.

Chapter 03 — Prepare

The application, drafted as completely as the disclosure allows — then handed to a practitioner.

Provisional and non-provisional utility drafting are live today. A guided inventor interview drives section-by-section generation grounded only in the inventor's disclosure — the engine never invents technical facts.

01

Guided interview

Section prompts collect exactly what each part of the specification needs — structure, embodiments, operation, worked examples, alternatives.

02

Grounded drafting

Nine provisional sections (twelve for a non-provisional) drafted from the disclosure through an injection-guarded runner. No invented facts.

03

Live accuracy panel

More than 20 automated checks run as you go — enablement support, undefined terms, claim antecedent basis, claim-dependency validity, IDS completeness, and more.

04

Practitioner sign-off

Section-by-section review with HIGH-severity flag guards that block sign-off until resolved. Versioned history and an immutable audit trail throughout.

Auto-generated IDS from the platform's own search

For a non-provisional, the Information Disclosure Statement is assembled deterministically from the patent engine's prior-art landscape — patent and non-patent-literature columns in PTO/SB/08 structure — with an honest coverage statement. The practitioner reviews, supplements, and certifies the §1.56 duty of candor.

Page-numbered, USPTO-order exports

Download the complete application as page-numbered DOCX or PDF in USPTO order, including SB/16 cover data, with the IDS as its own page-numbered document. Design and PCT: the router recommends these pathways today; document generation for them is coming.

Two audiences, one build

Whether you buy drafting or do it, Vainture turns hours into leverage.

For TTOs & ventures

Cut outside-counsel drafting spend to review hours.

Arrive at counsel with a routed strategy and a drafted application in hand. What used to be a blank-page drafting engagement becomes a review — and the science that deserves protection actually gets there.

For IP attorneys & agents

A drafting-leverage tool — your hours go to judgment, not typing.

Start from a complete, disclosure-grounded draft with claims, specification, and an auto-assembled IDS. Spend your time on the calls only a practitioner can make: scope, eligibility, and the signature.

A licensed practitioner is the final step

Vainture prepares applications and analyses for licensed-practitioner review, signature, and filing. It never files and never provides legal advice. Every recommendation — including the choice of filing instrument — is decision support for practitioner confirmation.

Run both engines in parallel

One disclosure. Both engines. Two verdicts, side by side.

Submit one disclosure and run Signal and Patent together. Both verdicts render side by side, and your reviewer records the combined read — then routes the invention into filing strategy and drafting.
