Lonestar Patent Services

Lonestar Patent Services helps inventors fully design, develop, protect and license their new product ideas to Fortune 1000 companies. The job it does: managing your IT, from help desk to infrastructure, as an outside partner.

Who is it for? Mostly small and mid-sized companies. They also list Consulting, so expect those to show up in the feature set. As a small company team themselves (11 to 50 people), they tend to serve customers of a similar scale best. You will probably talk to the people who build it, which is great until you need 24/7 support.

Lonestar Patent Services is based in Irving, Texas and founded in 1988. You can read more at lspatents.com.
