Intellectual property

A provisional patent application covering parts of the Nowish system has been filed with the Indian Patent Office under the Patents Act, 1970.

• Application number: 202611042136
• Filed: 1 April 2026
• Status: pending

The application concerns, among other things, the mechanism by which a guest asks a restaurant for an offer and the restaurant replies with a private, time-limited one — the flow Nowish calls “Ask for Offer”. A pending application is not a granted patent, and we describe it as pending rather than as granted.

Separately from the application above, the following are ours and are protected by copyright and by the law of confidence:

• The Nowish software — the applications, the interfaces, the way the screens are arranged and the logic behind them.
• The visual design: the typography, the palette, the layouts and the illustrations on this site.
• The written material, including the wording of these legal pages and of the product's own text.
• The name Nowish, the wordmark and the logo.

A restaurant's own material is not ours — its menu, its photographs, its prices and its guest records belong to the restaurant. See section 8 of the terms.

Without written permission from us, you may not:

• Copy, adapt or republish the Nowish software, its interfaces or this site's designs and text.
• Decompile or reverse-engineer any part of Nowish, or attempt to derive how it works in order to build something equivalent.
• Build a product that reproduces the mechanism described in section 1 while that application is pending or, if it is granted, during its term.
• Use the Nowish name, wordmark or logo in a way that suggests we endorse or are connected with something we are not.

Ordinary reporting, review and comparison are fine. This is not an attempt to stop anybody writing about Nowish or saying what they think of it.

If you believe Nowish infringes your rights, or you have found Nowish material being used somewhere it should not be, write to hello@nowish.in with enough detail to identify it — a link, a screenshot, and what you say the right is. We answer every notice of this kind.
