What problem does it solve?
This Skill eliminates the risk of missed statutory deadlines and improper IP ownership when onboarding new inventions and developments from employees, contractors, and consultants under Russian law, ensuring your intellectual property is properly protected from the first step of the intake process.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Preliminary Patentability Assessment: Evaluate inventions, utility models, industrial designs, software, and trade secrets against Russian Civil Code criteria for patentability and protection eligibility.
- Ownership Analysis: Automatically identify IP ownership rights for employee service works (per Article 1295 of the Russian Civil Code) and service inventions (per Article 1370), including tracking of 3-year and 4-month statutory deadlines for employer action.
- Actionable Protection Roadmap: Generate a prioritized list of next steps for patent filing, trade secret registration, software accreditation, and co-author rights transfer.
Use Case: A tech company’s R&D team finishes a new AI tool. Use this Skill to confirm the company owns the rights to the invention, assess if it qualifies for patent protection, and get a timeline for filing with Rospatent.
