Your Submission can be a voice mail or audio clip explaining your idea or written explanation, any format that will not take more than 90 seconds to listen or to read. This is a good practice for a future elevator pitch
There is no charge for this review for students.
WHY WE DO IT
Decades of experience with invention, design, distribution, manufacturing, marketing and licensing is built into the DNA of the invention/idea evaluation score card.
For students, all that is needed to qualify for the free service is proof of enrollment in an academic institution. Don't spend thousands on prototypes and patents without an expert opinion.

Your Idea Scorecard will be emailed within 14 business days of us receiving your pitch.
