The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) is quoted stating that a “patent owner has the right to decide who may or may not use the patented invention for the period in which the invention is protected. In other words, patent protection means that the invention cannot be commercially made, used, distributed, imported, or sold by others without the patent owner’s consent.”
A patent provides you with legal recourse in the event that a competitor infringes on your granted patent rights. Your filed patent has priority as of the date it is filed in a First-to-File system, thus it is wise to file at the soonest date possible. Since time is of the essence document your invention idea as you go. Be thorough so you can set up the application to disclose every aspect you wish to have protected.
In the United States, a patent holder has the right to exclude others from making, using, selling, offering to sell, and importing the patented invention. You should disclose and market your product only once you have protection in place, once your patent application has been filed.
