IPflair has been my preferred IP partner for my startup ventures since 2018. Our first Patent got approved within 18 months and IPflair played an important role in the entire process -their quality of patentability search reports, fast learning curve on the subject matters, drafting and overall diligence process has been quite amazing. We are continuing to bank on them for our IP portfolio management, including India PTO and PCT applications.
IPFlair has been a strategic IP partner for TruthShare right from our incorporation. Working with IPFlair, our first patent has been granted in India in less than 1 year. The patent has also been published by US patent office and filed with WIPO. We have now worked with IPFlair on 10+ patents and filed them in multiple geographies. All these patents are in the cutting edge technology areas like privacy, blockchain and cryptography. I would certainly recommend IPFlair to Indian companies, startups and individuals looking to protect their innovation in India and abroad.
The service provided by IPflair was very professional. The patent search made by them is very comprehensive and saves a lot of time. The main advantage of working with them was their attorneys’ exposure to Technology & Engineering, they were understanding our product very well and drafted the patent appropriately thus enabling us to obtain the patent in a single attempt. Wishing them all the best for further endeavours.
IPflair is good at demystyfying the entire aspect IP filing. They are systemic, frank, knowledgeable and open to customer idea. What I liked most about them is the speed of execution. I thank the entire team of IPflair and specially Harish N for his multiple technical discussions with me. You can trust IPflair. They deliver.
Professionalism and perfection at each stage of the process!! It is just a thought in my mind that came out of my real life pain point and possible solution to that. The rest of the things, IPflair team took it from there with their technical expertise and professionalism to get the patent grant in a very short time. Because of the IPflair, me as a Home maker could be a patent owner in such a short time. In depth analysis of the idea for extensive search for previous artifacts, excellent drafting and technical representation at the hearing, resulted with a great result
I selected IPFlair for the patent application process of an application process and design. I was handheld on the whole process, the team was with me, clearing my queries, suggesting changes and improvising the documentation flow all along. I was kept apprised on the status at every stage. Finally, we got the patent approved within 9-10 months, without IPFlair, it would have been complicated. I appreciate their efforts, communication mechanism and commitment towards achieving the set goal. I have already recommended them to a couple of enquiries and would continue to do so for whomever that asks.
IPflair has helped us get our patent for our hydroponic system in India. This is the only patented hydroponic system in India. Their expertise and experience in the intellectual property area has helped us to achieve this. Mr. Khaja was great to work with! Highly Recommend IPflair!
Because it’s such a technology-based industry, everything is person to person. IPflair team caters to the individual and professional need.
IPflair has a very competent team. We have received very professional support from IPflair during the entire journey of Patenting process viz. FTO to Patent filing and obatining granted Patent.
Team IPflair demonstrated exemplary professionalism and attention to detail in executing all the stages necessary to take me from drafting till grant of my patent on the Electric Powered Parxxxxxx (2019210xxxxx). I was most impressed with the team’s ability to grasp technological fine points of a domain that’s not very often encountered in this pursuit. That dexterity was instrumental in executing an extensive novelty search and thus setting a solid fountain in the formulation of the description and claims. This was later reinforced during the prosecution and the response to the examination eventually leading to an expedited grant in a little over a year from first approaching them. All of this done at a reasonable fee. I would most favourably recommend their service.
