    A 5-7 page assessment valuing your core innovation for federal pitches, emphasizing independent development’s advantages (e.g., no march-in rights from prior gov funding).
  • Freedom-to-Operate (FTO) Risk Assessment 
    An 8-12 page report clearing paths for federal use, analyzing risks in out-licensing scenarios or independent tech deployments to avoid conflicts with gov-held patents.
