FOR PATENT ATTORNEYS & AGENTS

Stop going back-and-forth on drawings. Handle them yourself.

Keep figures editable from intake through amendments — without redraw delays or vendor back-and-forth.

💡 Optional Cloud Workspace supports Mac, iPad, Linux, and locked-down IT environments.

What Is the IP DaVinci System?

A standardized, Visio-based drawing workflow for modern prosecution practices.

In many practices, even small drawing updates trigger back-and-forth with vendors — slowing drafting, amendments, and responses.

Sketches go out. Redlines come back.
Small changes turn into multi-day redraw cycles.
Routine updates — numbering, labeling, formatting — consume attorney and staff time.

The IP DaVinci Patent Drawing System™ gives practitioners a structured, repeatable way to create and revise patent-ready figures inside Microsoft Visio — without relying on markup chains, static PDFs, or repeated vendor rebuilds.

IP DaVinci introduces a shared drawing standard across attorneys, paralegals, and inventors.

The system combines:

  • Role-based training so contributors operate inside one workflow
  • Patent-ready templates & stencils that apply formatting conventions automatically
  • Optional Cloud Workspace for mixed-device environments
  • Studio support for complex or overflow matters

The outcome is simple: figures remain editable and aligned with claims throughout prosecution — reducing turnaround time, ambiguity, and unnecessary drafting spend.

What Practitioners Gain

Less friction. More control.

SPEED

Update figures same day

Make routine changes directly in the editable source file instead of sending redlines and waiting on drafting turnaround.

  • Faster OA responses
  • Immediate claim-aligned updates
  • Less coordination overhead
CLARITY

Reduce ambiguity at intake

Capture structured figures early — so ambiguities are resolved before drafting begins.

  • Cleaner disclosure alignment
  • Fewer inventor clarification loops
  • Stronger spec-to-figure consistency
LEVERAGE

Delegate without losing standards

Staff can handle numbering, formatting, and routine edits while figures remain compliant.

  • Attorney reviews instead of rebuilds
  • Less last-minute formatting friction
  • Higher internal efficiency
DURABILITY

Keep drawings revision-ready

Editable files evolve across continuations and amendments instead of being rebuilt.

  • Reuse across related filings
  • Cleaner amendment cycles
  • More predictable timelines

Where Attorneys Use the System

From intake through prosecution.

Invention Intake

Capture and refine figures live — so ambiguities are resolved immediately instead of during drafting.

Initial Drafting

Start with structured, patent-ready figures aligned with claims from the beginning.

Amendments & Office Actions

Revise figures directly in the same file — without vendor redraw cycles.

Client Collaboration

Adjust figures in real time while preserving formatting and standards.

ADOPTION PATH

Start Individual. Scale as Needed.

Adopt the workflow at your pace.

Typical Practitioner Path:

  1. Adopt the Starter Package for intake, drafting, and amendments.
  2. Add Maintenance & Support for ongoing updates and assistance.
  3. Use Cloud or Studio only when appropriate.

How Practices Implement IP DaVinci

1

Individual Practitioner

An attorney or agent adopts the workflow to streamline drafting and amendments.

2

Practice-Group Standard

Shared templates align attorneys and support staff around one drawing standard.

3

Firm-Level Alignment

Attorneys, staff, and clients operate on the same editable drawing framework.

Used by Patent Practitioners

“Live intake figure refinement eliminated hours of clarification later.”

— Patent Attorney

“Amendments are faster when figures stay editable.”

— Patent Agent

“Standardized templates removed formatting friction and let me focus on claims.”
