Instant IP™ has unveiled the IP Superscript, a novel certification mark designed to provide rapid and accessible intellectual property (IP) protection through blockchain technology. This innovative solution addresses traditional IP protection challenges by offering an immediate, cost-effective method for creators and entrepreneurs to secure their intellectual assets.
The IP Superscript serves as a unique marker that signifies an expression—whether words, phrases, charts, or graphs—has been protected via a smart contract on the blockchain. Utilizing a patented solution (US Patent: 11,928,748), the system creates an immutable, time-stamped record that establishes a first-to-use or first-to-file event for an idea.
Developed by Dr. Kary Oberbrunner, a bestselling author and entrepreneur, the platform aims to democratize IP protection. Traditional patent and trademark processes are often lengthy and expensive, creating barriers for innovators. Instant IP™ offers an initial protective layer that complements rather than replaces existing legal protections.
The blockchain-based approach provides entrepreneurs with a swift mechanism to safeguard their innovations. By reducing financial and temporal barriers, the system encourages a more dynamic business environment that supports idea development and sharing.
While the IP Superscript does not substitute comprehensive legal protections like patents or trademarks, it represents a significant step toward making intellectual property defense more accessible and immediate for creators across various industries.
