👉 Filed engineering, also known as engineering disclosure or filing, is the process by which inventors formally register their intellectual property rights, typically patents, with relevant patent offices. This involves submitting detailed documentation that describes the invention, its novelty, and how it works, along with claims defining the scope of protection sought. The filing process ensures that the inventor's rights are legally protected and provides a public record of the invention, which can be crucial for commercialization and licensing. It also helps in establishing priority dates, which are essential in patent disputes and for determining the validity of other patents. Filing engineering is a critical step in safeguarding innovations and enabling inventors to leverage their creations in the market.
