Hey, This is Rory Flanagan!
I want to help you protect your invention.
I am the founder of The Pragmatic Penguin. I’m also an inventor and entrepreneur. And over the past seven years, I have been working to help fellow inventors to achieve inventing success.
I spend most of my waking hours finding, creating, and testing new tactics to drastically reduce the time and money wasting practices I see all around me.
Whether it be $15,000 patents, $10,000 prototypes, or the misleading expectations of crowdfunding, I’m working to steer inventors along a safer and more profitable path.
Don’t let overpriced inventing services and bad advice slow you down. There are a few rare people that have your best interests at heart. You just need to seek them out.
I hope we’ll work together. We’re on the same journey, and there is plenty of wisdom to be shared between us.

"Rory is a real help. He demystifies the USPTO website and application processes. He has printscreens of most things you should be doing. He just made applying for a provisional patent to be as easy a thing anyone can do. He provides advice on a wide range of topics related to patents. I found this advice to be very good and most helpful."

"Rory was an absolute pleasure to work with. Everything he did exceeded my expectations and went above and beyond the scope of work. His experience in the entire field of inventing, as well as applying for patents, significantly reduced the time it has taken me to get a working prototype of a brand new product, as well as reduce the risk associated with the intellectual property side of the equation. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to launch a product."
