FOR PATENT ATTORNEYS & AGENTS
Draft faster with cleaner figures — without redraw cycles
A complete Microsoft Visio-based patent drawing system — training, templates & stencils, with optional cloud workspace and studio support. Designed for non-drafters.
💡 Cloud Workspace available for Mac, iPad, and locked-down environments.
What Is the IP DaVinci System?
I built the IP DaVinci Patent Drawing System™ to help patent practitioners create, revise, and manage patent-ready drawings in Microsoft Visio.
Most prosecution teams still handle drawings the hard way: sketches and screenshots go out, markups come back, and small changes turn into multi-day turnaround. Because attorneys and staff aren’t trained on repeatable patent drawing workflows and tools, routine work becomes slower than it should be — figure prep, numbering, revisions, and minor amendments all create delays.
IP DaVinci gives your team a standard workflow and the right Visio tools so non-drafters can contribute confidently and figure work becomes faster and more predictable.
IP DaVinci combines:
- Role-based Training (so non-drafters become productive fast)
- Toolkit Templates + Stencils (so standards are enforced and figure work is faster)
- DaVinci Cloud Workspace (Windows + Visio in the browser for Mac/locked-down IT)
- Studio Services (outsourcing for complex, time-sensitive, or overflow work)
The result is faster figure turnaround, fewer redraw loops, and lower drafting spend — because your team can revise figures directly in the same editable Visio source file, instead of relying on markups, static PDFs, and repeated vendor rebuilds.
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.
Toolkit (Starter Package)
Visio templates and stencils that enforce patent-ready standards while accelerating figure creation and keeping drawings consistent and editable across matters.
Maintenance & Support (Annual)
Optional annual plan that keeps the Toolkit current, provides drawing/system support, and includes Studio credits.
DaVinci Cloud Workspace (Optional)
Managed Windows + Visio in the browser when local installs aren’t practical (Mac, iPad, Linux, locked-down environments).
Studio (Optional)
Expert drawings for complex or time-sensitive cases — fully compatible with the same system.
What attorneys and agents achieve with one shared drawing system
Consistency first. Speed follows.
Make figure updates fast during prosecution
Handle routine updates directly in the editable Visio source file instead of sending redlines and waiting on drafting turnaround.
- Same-day updates for routine changes
- Faster OA responses and claim-aligned figures
- Less time coordinating vendor revisions
Reduce ambiguity at intake
Standardized intake figures reduce interpretation errors and eliminate rounds of clarification before drawings become filing-ready.
- Cleaner initial figure structure
- Fewer inventor follow-ups and rework
- Stronger alignment between disclosure, spec, and figures
Delegate figure work without losing standards
With training + templates, staff can complete more figure prep independently — while the work stays compliant and consistent across matters.
- Paralegals handle numbering, formatting, and routine edits
- Attorneys review instead of rebuild
- Fewer last-minute figure surprises
Keep drawings revision-ready across continuations
When figures stay editable, they evolve with the case instead of being rebuilt for every change, continuation, or client tweak.
- Reuse and adapt figures across filings
- Cleaner amendments without redraw-heavy workflows
- More predictable prosecution timelines
Where attorneys and agents use the system
From intake through prosecution.
Invention Intake
Capture or refine figures during intake so ambiguities are resolved immediately instead of resurfacing later during drafting.
Initial Drafting
Start with structured, patent-ready figures that support claims instead of reconstructing ad-hoc sketches.
Amendments & Office Actions
Revise figures directly in the same Visio file — no markup chains, no vendor redraw delays.
Client Collaboration
Review and adjust figures with inventors in real time, while keeping formats and standards consistent.
SYSTEM ADOPTION
The Default Adoption Path
Start with the system. Add support or services only when needed.
The IP DaVinci System Adoption Path:
- Start with the Starter Package, which includes Training and the Toolkit.
- Keep Maintenance & Support active annually to receive Toolkit updates, system support, and Studio credits.
- Add Cloud Workspace only when local installs aren’t practical (Mac, iPad, Linux, locked-down IT).
- Use Studio only when you want drawings done for you.
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.
Add Maintenance & Support
Optional annual plan for active production use.
- ✔ Toolkit updates and refinements.
- ✔ Drawing and system support.
- ✔ Studio credits included.
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.
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.
How practitioners typically adopt IP DaVinci
Individual use
An attorney or agent starts with the Starter Package for intake + drafting + amendments, then adds Maintenance & Support if they want ongoing updates and help.
Practice-group standard
Shared templates and conventions align attorneys and support staff around one workflow, with Maintenance & Support keeping the Toolkit consistent over time.
Firm-wide system
Attorneys, paralegals, clients, and vendors operate on the same editable drawing standard, with optional Cloud Workspace and Studio for access or overflow.
Used by patent practitioners
“Live figure refinement during intake eliminated hours of clarification later.”
— Patent Attorney
“Amendments are faster when figures stay editable instead of going back to vendors.”
— Patent Agent
“Standardized templates removed formatting friction and let me focus on claims.”
— IP Counsel
