Patent & IP pricing

Clear pricing where a repeatable scope permits it

Patent services appear first because they are Cognivito's primary practice. Published prices identify a starting scope, not an automatic quote or promise of acceptance. Final fees, exclusions, third-party costs, payment terms, and client responsibilities are stated in the written engagement.
