The most useful thing about software patents IMO is what you uncover during the patent writing process. When you’re sitting there writing the equivalent of a 10-20 page college essay on the problem background, operating environment, then al

A $30,000 car today often has a far better screen/user experience than a $300,000 boat. iPad/tablet apps for boaters attached to mounts are common, though lack communication with the boat's sensors (without something like Sig

Yes, as AnhTho_FR said, some * notating “fair usage” or “unlimited for advertised use-cases” gives you a fallback in the event of a dispute. It ultimately depends on what you’re selling and who your customers are. If a customer is legitimat

I’m not suggesting it’s easy, but the trick is to play with pricing a lot in your early days while learning what those costs are. Start a little higher than you think you need - it’s easier to adjust down later than go up. Outliers can be c

Great question. So yes, while our suppliers charge us for usage (and that made us initially think we should too!), our customers didn’t use the product any more or less once it became unlimited. If you’re solving a problem that a typical cu

Thanks! If you're looking for an easy place to start, look to tabular reports. Ask a stakeholder (e.g. contract renewals team) to create an ideal report with maybe 5 rows of sample data in Google Sheets / Excel. A good example may

This has been our approach as we scaled from customer one to acquisition by bigco a decade later, and I'd still point to it as being a key driver of our success: - Set a monthly meeting with a co-worker from each functional area (e.g.

Would this be classified as a "tiny home" by most jurisdictions? Not at this price-point, but we've been looking for prefab housing related to a transitional housing grant, where many cities in Florida do not allow tiny homes

We did this a lot in our early days, and while we didn't correlate it with spending, customers occasionally would acknowledge the note in future conversations. To me, it falls in the category of "do things that don't scale&qu

I walk on a nesting sea turtle beach each morning here in Florida and chat up the local researchers who pass by daily. There are around 300 nests in the 1/2 mile zone I walk, with around 100 eggs per nest. Every few feet there’s a yell
