How much does a patent cost?

A US utility patent typically costs $10,000 to $20,000 or more through a traditional law firm once attorney fees, USPTO fees and prosecution are included, and a European patent through the EPO lands in a similar range once official fees, attorney fees and national validations are added. Flat-fee AI-assisted platforms with published pricing bring this down significantly by automating drafting and search while an attorney still reviews the result.
