We are Valigent

By inventors, for innovative companies.

Valigent was founded to help strong technical ideas survive the journey from R&D to IP.

A message from Rickard

In my experience, whether an idea becomes a patented invention has surprisingly little to do with how clever the engineers or scientists are.

Good ideas are often lost for much simpler reasons. They get buried under hours of writing invention disclosures, days of prior art searching, and weeks of waiting for feedback—all in processes that feel disconnected from how technical teams actually work.

When we built Valigent, we built the tool we had wished for all along.

Built from experience on both sides of the gap.

Founded in 2024, the Valigent team brings together 25 years of experience in AI R&D and hands-on experience as inventors behind more than 20 patents.

CTO

Make invention development part of how innovative companies work.

We want R&D teams to receive useful IP feedback earlier—and IP teams to see stronger opportunities before time and attention are committed to formal work.

Close the gap between your R&D and IP teams.
