A Launchpad for IP-Driven Startups
PNPL, which stands for Patent Now, Pay Later, isn't just a service. It's a revolutionary model designed for founder success. We've created the world's first platform that funds your entire patent process on a convertible note, requiring only 20% upfront. This allows you to secure your most valuable asset without draining your runway.
We assess your IP, team, and market fit to generate your unique iSTARTUP Score. This unified benchmark does more than just qualify you for PNPL funding it provides powerful proof to early-stage and pre-seed investors that your IP is a fundable, commercially viable asset.
Every PNPL Evaluation is Built on Three Core Reports

How The Financing Works
Our founder-friendly financing model is designed to preserve your runway while you secure your IP.
Start the process with just 20% of the total service cost.
Spread the remaining balance over a 36-month period.
The deferred balance is tokenized as a secure convertible note on the blockchain.
Missed payments transparently convert the outstanding balance into equity.
This model allows you to preserve cash and equity while securing your most valuable assets. The entire process is managed via smart contracts for maximum transparency and trust.
