Client Testimonials
What innovators say about us
"Saral's patent team didn't just file paperwork — they understood our ML algorithm deeply and crafted claims that captured every novel aspect. All 4 patents were granted without amendments."
"We were quoted ₹1.5L per trademark by a big firm. Saral did the same work at ₹25K with equal quality. We've now registered 6 trademarks with them — all approved."
"The prior art search saved us ₹3L. Saral found a near-identical patent in the US database that would have blocked our Indian filing. We pivoted the invention and got the patent."

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is it critical to file a provisional patent before launching my startup?
A provisional patent gives you a 12-month 'priority date' and 'patent pending' status. This protects your invention while you pitch to investors or test the market, preventing others from patenting your core idea and blocking your business.How can a strong trademark increase my company's valuation?
A registered trademark is a defensible intangible asset. It protects your brand from copycats, builds customer trust, and directly increases your balance sheet value, which is a key metric sophisticated investors evaluate during due diligence.What is the typical process and cost to file a software patent through Saral Groups?
We conduct a prior-art search, draft a rock-solid specification with broad claims, and file it in the US or India.
