To bad you didn't use your own system for own product. The selling of the 'product' to a 3rd party is a big no no. So why you may cash out some change in the beginning. You loose all rights and ROYALTIES if quirky sells of that 'product' to a 3rd party because I signed over my intellectual rights.
when applying for a patent, you have to sign a document stating you have not disclosed your idea. quirky is a disclosure, so no one can paten it. they may however patent the ways they arrive at any solutions or enhancements of your ideas that have not been disclosed.

what happens if Quirky sells the idea to a third party as outlined in the TOU? Does that leave the inventor FUBAR? Also, does Quirky maintain ANY responsibility for the product as far as patents, etc go or is that left to the inventor to fend for him/herself? Thanks. P.
Brilliant! I mean this in the best way - Quirky represents almost a hive-mind process; I see humanity working together. Why can't governments get "quirky" and solve some problems?
As a product designer & project manager, I should point out the reason they dont handle IP is because they dont want to dish out the cash that IP costs. They have no intentions of building products. Simply collecting $99 from people, and whipping up some simple CAD, creating false hopes. Getting products onto shelves costs hundreds of thousands. This is $99 for some quick feedback from PR and marketing personnel.
Sounds like legally stealing some poor dudes idea by incentivising them with a little hush money... dont do it never sell yourself short

@LoveBringsTruth Do you honestly think they'd still be in business if they engaged in such a practice?
