Turning Ideas Into Products That Sell

InventSmartUSA helps inventors bridge the gap between creativity and commerce — with proven systems, real-world mentorship, and the retail expertise behind national brands.

Since 1996, what later developed into the team behind InventSmartUSA has helped inventors develop, protect, and launch ideas that reach millions of consumers.

As the research, development, and mentoring division of Trentco Innoventions, InventSmartUSA provides the hands-on guidance inventors need before spending thousands on manufacturing.
