I carry with only inventor product. But can you invent the service as well? Yeah, so it's good question. So patents can protect a physical components physical products, like, like, like a Rubik's Cube, for example. But they can also protect methods. So if you have a service and it involves a particular method, say you have a method of cleaning sidewalks that's fairly unique, you've got a unique series of steps, you can patent that, and then that would protect you as well. Now, if your method also involves a unique chemical composition, you can get two patents one patent protecting the chemical composition and one a separate one protecting the specific method using any chemical composition. So yeah, the answer the short answer to that is absolutely don't don't not pursue a patent. Because you think it's a service instead of a product software is a service in many instances and you can protect software with a patent
