Product
Development
Includes rapid prototyping with 3D printing, where possible. Watch this video to see how fast we may be able to 3D print parts of your invention
Patenting
Our patenting services are the best, starting with the PerfectPatent™ Search in step 1 of The Inventor’s Journey™. We’ve helped many inventors get US and UK patent protection. You could be next
Launch
Once your invention is developed into a final product and has been deemed allowable for patent at the patent office, it’s time to launch your invention. That could be by licensing, or perhaps self-launching via Amazon or other outlets
We're The Best

Your Route To Victory - The 8 steps
The 8 steps of The Inventor’s Journey™ as shown below are the exact steps you need to complete, in the exact order you need to complete them, to optimize your chances of getting success with your invention
Step 1
Patent Search
The Inventor’s Journey™ starts with a patent search, to see if your invention is patentable
Our service at this step:
The PerfectPatent™ Search service
Replicates an official patent office search with a claim-based search
Step 2
Provisional Patent
If you get through the patent search, it’s time to get patent pending with a provisional patent application
Our service at this step:
The PerfectPatent™ Pending service
We draft and file a provisional patent application for you and get you perfect patent pending status in as quick as a week
Step 3
Product Proof
The first prototype of the ‘perfect’ final design of your product
Our service at this step:
The PerfectProduct™ Proof Of Principle service
We design your invention into the perfect final design of the product, and then prototype it to prove (and improve) it. Often includes rapid prototyping with 3D printing
Step 4
Full Patent
Your full non-provisional patent application searched and examined at the patent office
Our service at this step:
The LightSpeed PerfectPatent™ Package
We draft and file your non-provisional patent application, and get your official patent office results in as quick as 18 days from filing it. There’s no other service this fast
Step 5
Product Design (For Manufacture)
The final version of your product designed and engineered for manufacture
Our service at this step:
The PerfectProduct™ Design service
We do made-for-manufacture design on your product to get it ready for advanced prototyping in the next step, and possibly also mass manufacture
Step 6
Product Prototype
An advanced, almost ‘sales-ready’ prototype of your product built
Our service at this step:
The PerfectProduct™ Prototype service
We do an advanced prototype that looks and functions as close as possible to a sales-ready version of your product. Now the world takes you seriously.
Step 7
Launch Video
A brief explainer video of your advanced prototype in action, to help with the launch
Our service at this step:
The PerfectLaunch™ Video service
We make an explainer video of your advanced prototype, typically 60-90 secs long, showing its value and the problems it solves. This is hugely helpful to your launch in the next step
Step 8
Invention Launch
Your launch video used to try to launch your invention- by licensing or self-launch
Our service at this step:
The PerfectLaunch™ Package
Your launch video is the perfect launch tool. We leverage it, whether it be to aid licensing, or as part of a crowdfunding campaign, or even to help you self-launch- eg on Amazon
The Invention Equation has been solved!
In the past, inventors such as yourself had to rely on ‘invention help’ companies to direct how you move forward with your invention. But many of these companies have a less than 1% success rate of generating profit for inventors.
The Inventor’s Journey™ 8 step system solves the equation for how to optimize your chances of getting success with your invention. See the 8 steps (and their order) on The Inventor’s Journey™ Map, below. We provide a service at each step for your invention.
The Captain
The Inventor’s Journey™ was created by Jethro L Bennett, a British scholar and straight-A student who was educated at Eton College, where 20 UK Prime Ministers were educated.
Jethro is a combined inventor, product designer, and elite patent specialist. This gave him unusual understandings of how the different steps of patenting and product design best go together.
After losing a lot of money going to an ‘invention help’ company, (before he learnt how to patent and before he had designed any products), Jethro got seriously injured in early 2009. The injury forced him to rely on his background as a scholar in Ancient Greek to learn how to patent his first invention, Discshine™, (next-generation shoe cleaning device), himself. He quickly got to a level where he was noticing patent attorney mistakes.
But after losing so much money to the ‘invention help’ company, and knowing that the reason was that they carried out their services in the wrong order, Jethro started to try to work out the steps that needed to be done, and the exact order they needed to be done, to avoid these mistakes, and to optimize the chances of getting success with any invention. By 2016, and after a huge amount of work, he solved the equation. The result is the 8 steps of The Inventor’s Journey™ that you see on The Inventor’s Journey™ Map, opposite.

Thanks for coming to this section about me! Hopefully there’s some (mildly) interesting stuff…
If you’re an inventor, I have no problem at all if you never buy any of our services/products- the main reason I got into this industry was that I lost about £5000 (approx. $7000) going to an ‘invention help’ company in around 2007/2008. They did things in the wrong order, meaning that the money I had spent on the patenting and the design work was completely wasted. I had to start again, and at that point, I had lost my health and had no money left. I had to rely on my background as a scholar in Ancient Greek to learn how to patent my first invention, (Discshine™), myself. The rest is history…
But it was what I saw next that had a huge affect on me. I saw the statistics and success rates of Davison, (Invention Help company). What I saw was shocking, and I knew I had to sort it out.
So please, if you’re an inventor reading this, even if you never buy any of the amazing services/products we have on offer; even if you never move forward with The Inventor’s Journey™ 8 step system, please make sure to just watch the Deadly Mistake #1 video. (It features the figures of Davison and InventHelp). We badly need to sort this out, and stop this type of thing from happening.
And you watching this video plays a part
Thank you
A Level:
Straight A grades (3 A grades in English, Ancient Greek, and Spanish)
GCSE:
Straight A grades (7 A grades and 4 A-star grades)
Education:
Summer Fields, Oxford (1988-92)
Eton College, Windsor (1992-97)
Other:
- I won the only scholarship place available at Summer Fields at around 7 years old
- When I became the first pupil at Summer Fields to score a perfect 100 on both Maths examinations in a single examination term, I was told that I was the first in the school’s history to do this. I’m not sure whether that was true, but the school had been founded 125 years earlier, in 1864
I’m a product designer who specializes in aesthetics and user-interface. I invent, design and patent all my own products. (I’ve self-drafted, filed, and prosecuted around 40 patent applications to grant).
I’ve also done a lot of design work for other inventors, and am designing several products at this time.
I currently do a lot of 3D printing as part of the design and prototyping process.
Here’s a little design work from Discshine™, (next-generation shoe polisher), which I invented, designed, and patented myself, getting 2 UK patents granted, and five US patents
I may be the most advanced self-taught patent specialist in the world. (An unwanted crown).
I’ve had approximately 40 patents granted that I’ve self-drafted, filed and prosecuted, at various patent offices. Most of my patents are UK patents, but I’ve also drafted, filed and prosecuted around a dozen patent applications to grant at the USPTO where I am the/an inventor. I’ve also filed at the PCT international phase, as well as national phase filings at the Canadian and Australian patent office. I’ve been drafting, filing and prosecuting patent applications for over ten years.
The combination of my academic background, conscientious nature, and ability as a user-interface product designer gives me a huge advantage over other patent practitioners when it comes to understanding the future of the product. This has powerful implications when it comes to patenting and ascertaining what the best patenting strategy (or strategies) is, to get the best possible patent protection for any given project. That is how I made my name in this industry.
Please feel free to read the reviews of some of my patent work in the Reviews section. In some cases, the reviewers compare me to previous patent attorneys they had used. They include the following quotes:
”His [Jethro’s] self-taught expertise far and away exceeds that of a run-of-the-mill patent lawyer.”
”Your time and dedication, honesty and professionalism to getting a thorough understanding of [my invention] has been unmatched to the point of proving incompetence with the “so called” professionals [including a patent attorney] I’ve dealt with to this point.”
Tennis:
I played tennis to a competitive level when I was younger, and represented Eton when I was there.
When younger, I wanted to be a professional tennis player. Whilst I didn’t get to that level, it was an important part of my life.
Golf:
I played on the Daihatsu Junior British Golf Tour in my teens.
Despite struggling very badly with my golf, I got down to a handicap of 3, (possibly 2, temporarily, although my memory is hazy), and I did break 70 in a competition, despite playing horrible golf.
