AI FOR INVENTORS · JULY 26, 2026
Validate Before You Invest: Welcome to the Newsletter That Could Save Your Invention
I started InventMentors because I kept watching the same mistake happen over and over.
Brilliant people. Real ideas. Real passion.
Spending money they did not have on ideas the market had never confirmed.
I had been on the other side of those deals. I knew what licensees looked for. I knew what killed a deal before it started. I knew the questions nobody was asking inventors before they invested everything they had.
So I built a process around those questions.
This newsletter is that process, delivered to your inbox every week.
Why I started this
My parents immigrated to the United States when I was three years old with one hundred dollars. They built a life by observing what was missing and innovating to fill the gap. That is where I caught the inventor's mindset.
I have taken a product through the full licensing journey myself, from idea to a signed licensing contract with a brand manufacturer. I know what it costs to move without the right information. And I know what changes when you have it.
That is what this newsletter is about.
What you will get here
Every Monday I publish one deep dive covering a specific skill, framework, or strategy that helps inventors and founders move forward with better information and less guesswork.
Starting this week I am launching a 12-week series called AI for Inventors. Every week I will teach you one practical AI skill, give you one copy-paste ready prompt, and show you exactly how to use it to validate your idea, find your buyer, and avoid the mistakes that cost time and money.
No tech background required. No complex systems. Just real tools that work.
Here is what you can expect every week:
- One core idea taught completely
- One named framework you can use immediately
- One practical next step you can take before next Monday
- Occasional free tools, checklists, and downloadable resources
Free subscribers get the full weekly newsletter every Monday.
If you want to go deeper before next week, start with the free Idea Readiness Check at inventmentors.com/validation. Fifteen questions. Five minutes. Real clarity on where your idea stands right now.
A note on who this is for
This newsletter is for inventors who have an idea and are not sure what to do next.
It is for founders who have launched but are not sure where the real opportunity is.
It is for anyone who has ever been told their idea is great by everyone they know and still felt uncertain about whether it would actually sell.
You are in the right place.
Every week I will give you one thing you can do with real information instead of a guess.
That is the whole point.
See you Monday.
