The Complete Patent Drawing Stack

Four products that work together — choose one or combine them.

Training

Patent Drawing School — Visio Edition

A practical, skills-focused training program that quickly teaches you how to create clear, consistent, patent-office-compliant utility patent drawings in Microsoft Visio — even with no prior Visio or drawing experience.

  • 30+ micro-courses, demos, and practice exercises designed to build skills quickly — even with no prior drawing experience.
  • Learn a clear, repeatable workflow for creating patent-office-compliant utility drawings in Visio.
  • Covers all major figure types including flowcharts, system diagrams, GUI screens, graphs, tables, and image-based tracing.

Toolkit

IP DaVinci Toolkit — Speed, Consistency & Compliance

Standardized Visio templates and premade patent shapes that speed up drafting, improve consistency, and ensure patent-office-compliant figures.

  • Draw 5×–10× faster using pre-made Visio templates, layers, and specialized patent-drawing stencils.
  • Ensure consistency and clarity with standardized annotation, line weights, layout rules, and figure structures.
  • Stay compliant with patent-office expectations, using templates and shapes aligned with USPTO and international drawing standards.

Cloud Workspace

DaVinci Cloud Workspace — Visio on Any Device

A managed cloud desktop that gives you full Microsoft Visio on any device — Mac, Linux, Chromebook, or iPad — preconfigured with the IP DaVinci Toolkit so you can start drawing immediately.

  • Full Microsoft Visio in the cloud — no local install or Windows machine required.
  • Access from Mac, iPad, Linux, Chromebook, or locked-down corporate devices.
  • Toolkit-ready environment with consistent settings so drawings look the same across users and locations.

Studio

IP DaVinci Studio — Patent Drawings Done for You

A done-for-you patent drawing service that delivers clear, consistent, patent-office-compliant utility and design drawings — produced by experts who understand examiner expectations and filing requirements.

  • Clean, consistent, patent-office-compliant drawings for both utility and design applications.
  • Handled by experienced specialists, ensuring accuracy, clarity, and proper formatting.
  • Fast, predictable turnaround with figures delivered ready for filing or internal review.

What Teams Achieve with IP DaVinci

One shared Visio-based system, four ways to work.

In-House Drawing Capability

Patent Drawing School trains attorneys, paralegals, engineers, researchers, and students to produce examiner-friendly figures directly in Visio.

  • Handle routine utility figures without outsourcing
  • Onboard new hires and interns quickly
  • Reuse the same lessons as refreshers or labs

Faster Day-to-Day Production

The IP DaVinci Toolkit turns Visio into a standardized patent-drawing environment, so every figure takes fewer clicks and less rework.

  • Ready-made templates and patent-specific stencils
  • Consistent line weights, fonts, and layout conventions
  • Cut common figure time from 30–60 minutes to 5–10 minutes

Access From Anywhere

DaVinci Cloud Workspace gives non-Windows users a managed Visio desktop with the Toolkit and training files preloaded.

  • Run full Visio from Mac, Linux, Chromebook, or iPad
  • No local installs or IT approvals required
  • Perfect for distributed teams, labs, and short-term cohorts

Done-for-You When It Matters

IP DaVinci Studio handles complex or time-sensitive projects while staying compatible with the same Toolkit conventions.

  • Utility drawings delivered in editable Visio format
  • STIPPLES® design-patent drawings for maximum clarity
  • Easy handoff between internal teams and Studio

One Shared Visual Language

Because everything is built around Visio + IP DaVinci Toolkit conventions, collaboration stays smooth across all products.

  • Training, Toolkit, Cloud, and Studio all use the same file types
  • Internal work and Studio work share the same look and feel
  • Less friction between engineering, legal, and outside partners

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is the IP DaVinci System?
It’s a unified workflow for creating patent-ready drawings and diagrams using Microsoft Visio. It includes the IP DaVinci Toolkit (stencils & templates), Patent Drawing School (training), DaVinci Studio (workflow layer), and Cloud Workspace for users without Windows.
Who is this designed for?
The system is used by law firms, R&D teams, universities, start-ups, and individual inventors. Anyone who needs to document inventions, processes, and systems can benefit from it.
Do I need previous Visio experience?
No. The Patent Drawing School teaches all core skills quickly — even complete beginners can start producing clean, consistent, patent-office-aligned drawings.
Can I use this if I don’t have Windows or Visio?
Yes. Our optional DaVinci Cloud Workspace provides a fully configured Visio desktop through your browser, accessible from Mac, Linux, and Chromebooks.
Is this compliant with USPTO and other patent offices?
Yes. The Toolkit and training are built around long-standing patent-drawing standards used in the USPTO, EPO, WIPO, and major national offices.
Does this replace professional drafting services?
It can reduce your dependency, but it doesn’t replace professional drafting entirely. Many clients use IP DaVinci for early drafts, internal documentation, and simpler figures — and outsource complex 3D or shading work when needed.
Will this speed up our patent drafting process?
Yes. Most users report significant time savings — faster invention disclosures, cleaner first drafts, fewer revisions, and less re-drawing.
How does licensing work?
You can use your own Visio licenses (BYOL), request short-term licenses for specific classes or teams, or use our Cloud Workspace where the license stays on the virtual machine.
Is the system secure?
Yes. All Visio work stays on your device or in your private cloud workspace. No drawings or confidential materials are uploaded to IP DaVinci servers.
Do you offer training for teams?
Yes. Teams get access to Patent Drawing School, onboarding guides, and optional live training sessions for attorneys, researchers, and students.
Can we start with a small pilot?
Absolutely. Many universities, firms, and R&D groups begin with a small pilot group, then expand once they see how seamlessly it fits into their workflow.
