provisional patent for a service base startup idea


20-Aug-2023 (In Patent Law)
We have a startup idea and prototype ready with us but we wanted to know can we patent our idea. our business model and idea is similar to zomato and other service providing apps. We are worried that if we approach a investor he/she can stole our idea an develop a app based on the same and we will be let with nothing. Is there any provisional patent available for starups in india and what is the cost for same.

Patent is basically a right or title for a set period which can be done bu any patent agent and the fees are very nominal in the market.
Sign and NDA with the the investor before pitching the idea which can protect your product and the technical know-how. we can get on a call for further discussion if you want to.
