THE PATENT DRAWING SYSTEM

One standardized system for creating patent drawings

Designed for non-drafters — productive in hours, not weeks. No drafting background required.

IP DaVinci gives teams a consistent way to create patent drawings in Microsoft Visio — from early invention disclosure through final filing and revision.
Trusted by law firms, corporate IP teams, R&D groups, universities, and individual practitioners.

What Is the IP DaVinci System?

A standardized, low-learning-curve approach to producing patent-ready drawings in Microsoft Visio.

IP DaVinci Patent Drawing System™ is a professional, repeatable system for producing patent-ready figures in Microsoft Visio — from early disclosure through formal filing and revision.

It is designed for non-drafters, requires no prior drafting or software background, and enables individuals and teams to work faster, with less rework and full control over their drawings.
How it works
The IP DaVinci Starter Package includes Training and the Toolkit as one integrated system. Training focuses only on the small set of skills required to capture invention figures correctly, while the Toolkit enforces standards automatically inside Visio. Most users reach productive use in 3–5 hours, not weeks.
Optional extensions
Maintenance & Support, Cloud Workspace, and Studio extend the same system as your needs evolve — without changing how drawings are created or reviewed.
LEARNING

Training (Starter Package)

Structured, role-based training that teaches the essential Visio skills, patent drawing standards, and figure-specific drawing techniques needed to produce patent-ready drawings within a standardized system.

STANDARDS

Toolkit (Starter Package)

Visio templates and stencils that enforce patent-ready standards while accelerating figure creation and keeping drawings consistent and editable across matters.

SUPPORT

Maintenance & Support (Annual)

Optional annual plan that keeps the Toolkit current, provides drawing/system support, and includes Studio credits.

ACCESS

DaVinci Cloud Workspace (Optional)

Managed Windows + Visio in the browser when local installs aren’t practical (Mac, iPad, Linux, locked-down environments).

CAPACITY

Studio (Optional)

Expert drawings for complex or time-sensitive cases — fully compatible with the same system.

What teams achieve with one shared system

Consistency first. Speed follows.

Fewer Redraws

Figures evolve with claims instead of being recreated at each stage.

  • Cleaner first drafts
  • Less rework during prosecution
  • More predictable revision cycles

Faster Day-to-Day Production

Standardization removes repetitive setup work and decision fatigue.

  • Routine figures in minutes, not hours
  • Reusable layouts and symbols
  • Less reformatting across matters

Cross-Team Consistency

Everyone speaks the same visual language across engineering, legal, and outside support.

  • Invention disclosures → patent filings
  • Internal → external drafting
  • R&D teams → patent counsel

Future-Proof Deliverables

All work stays editable in Visio, making drawings a reusable asset.

  • No locked files
  • No redraw dependency
  • Long-term reuse across families

SYSTEM ADOPTION

The Default Adoption Path

Start with the system. Add support or services only when needed.

The IP DaVinci System Adoption Path:

  1. Start with the Starter Package, which includes Training and the Toolkit.
  2. Keep Maintenance & Support active annually to receive Toolkit updates, system support, and Studio credits.
  3. Add Cloud Workspace only when local installs aren’t practical (Mac, iPad, Linux, locked-down environments).
  4. Use Studio only when you want drawings done for you.

START Starter Package

Start with the Starter Package

Everything you need to adopt the system and produce patent drawings yourself.

  • Training to learn the workflow.
  • Toolkit with templates and stencils.
  • One-time purchase. You keep what you receive.
ONGOING Maintenance

Add Maintenance & Support

Optional annual plan for active production use.

  • Toolkit updates and refinements.
  • Drawing and system support.
  • Studio credits included.
OPTIONAL Cloud

Add Cloud Workspace when installs aren’t practical

Run Windows + Visio in the browser for mixed-device or locked-down environments.

  • Ideal for Mac, iPad, Linux, and restricted IT setups.
  • Keeps the same system and file compatibility.
OPTIONAL Done-for-you

Use Studio when you want drawings done for you

Delegate complex, high-volume, or time-sensitive work.

  • Uses the same system.
  • No redraw or compatibility issues.

Why this matters: You only pay for what you actually need. Own the system outright, keep it current when you’re actively using it, and delegate only when it makes sense.

Who This Is For

Different needs, same standardized workflow.

Law Firms & IP Boutiques

  • Standardize drawing production across staff.
  • Use Maintenance & Support for continuity.
  • Use Studio for overflow or complex matters.

Corporate IP & R&D

  • Enable engineers to create usable figures.
  • Maintain consistency across teams.
  • Keep drawings editable long-term.

Universities & Academic Programs

  • Teach practical patent drawing skills.
  • Use Training as curriculum support.
  • Cloud Workspace for mixed-device labs.

Individuals & Professionals

  • Adopt the system with discounted access.
  • Create routine drawings internally.
  • Delegate complex work only when needed.

What clients say

From law firms to universities.

“The IP DaVinci System let us train our team quickly while still outsourcing complex drawings to the Studio.”

— Partner, IP Boutique

“Our engineers now use the same diagrams as legal. Standardization saved us dozens of hours.”

— Director of IP, R&D Division

“Teaching patent drawing skills is now simple — the cloud avoids all our lab headaches.”

Frequently Asked Questions

What do I actually own after purchasing?
You own the Training materials and the Toolkit files you receive with the Starter Package. Nothing is revoked if you choose not to continue with Maintenance & Support.
Is training access per person or shared?
Training access and Toolkit access are provided per seat, for the individual(s) covered by the Starter Package. Each person who needs access to the training or Toolkit files must have their own seat.
What does Maintenance & Support include?
Maintenance & Support includes Toolkit updates, drawing/system support, and Studio credits for limited expert assistance.
Do I need Maintenance & Support forever?
No. It is optional. Active users typically keep it enabled so the system stays current while they are producing drawings.
When should we use Cloud Workspace?
Use Cloud Workspace when local Windows/Visio installs aren’t practical — for Mac, iPad, Linux, or locked-down IT environments — while keeping the same system and file compatibility.
When should we use Studio?
Use Studio when you want drawings done for you — for overflow, complexity, or time-sensitive work.
