How I started

I started this by myself, in a house in Lawrenceville, Georgia, in 2014 — no lab, no grant, no company, no co-founder. The first patents went in in 2012. The first inventions went up for sale on a website called crione.com. The 2014 snapshot is still on the Wayback Machine. Back then the inventions were guessed at and presented at purchase — you bought a claim, and I figured out the rest as you went. The domain has changed names and shapes a few times since. The one inventor hasn't.

I'm what the patent office calls an independent inventor. Everyone else calls me an outsider. No lab. No co-founder. No one above me deciding what's worth building. What changed isn't the person — it's the tools. AI now does the finishing: the drawings, the verifications, the drafts that turn a claim into a blueprint. Same one hand still names every filing, prices every listing, decides what ships. The catalog you see is one person's work, finished to spec, priced at what it costs to have finished.
