Proofbox
Strategize, Not Oversize Your IP-Budget
Publish inventions as verifiable prior art. Proofbox uses a unique approach for discreet defensive publishing to preserve your space to innovate.
Top comment
Proofbox started with a real customer need: defensive publications without the usual side effects. Every existing provider dumps prior art into open databases: perfect for competitors running monitoring tools and AI systems scraping R&D pipelines at scale. A lot of IP teams look at that and walk away. They want to preserve their freedom to operate, not broadcast their roadmap. So the real challenge was the balancing act: enough publicity for a disclosure to actually count as prior art, enough discretion to establish prior art. Proofbox solves it by publishing discreetly and simultaneously making every publication globally discoverable, compliant with EPC, PCT, 35 U.S.C. and other frameworks. Happy to dig into the hard questions — legal, technical, commercial.
