A first Workshop on one sample invention, a solar float that keeps a rainwater tank fresh. Six pieces, in the order they are made. On a paid plan this is day one: your packet builds as you grow.

IP Monitor
New patents in your space, with a read on whether each one actually matters.
Billie checks your patent space every month for new filings, and each one gets a calm, plain-language read.
Nothing new to review this month. The two hits from the last check are under Tracking.
- USpublished Mar 2026
Floating aerator with photovoltaic canopy and tethered diffuser
Same parts, a different job.
A pond-scale unit with a tethered diffuser for fish farming. It shares the panel-plus-pump pairing but has no closed-tank sizing and no daylight-matched operation. Worth an eye, not a change of course.
- WOpublished Jan 2026
Solar-driven mixing system for potable water storage tanks
Closest hit so far.
A tank-mounted mixer powered from a roof panel, wired rather than floating. The closed-tank setting overlaps with yours; the floating, self-contained unit does not appear.
