Patents, patents, patents. Arm yourself to the teeth to defend yourself from the trillion dollar companies.

Spend a few thousand dollars to get provisionals. Then if your idea works and grows, file the full patents.

Don't let the giants steal your blood, sweat, and tears finding the gradients.

The only real "trickle down" that actually exists, heh. Invent cool stuff, protect yourself from having it stolen, eventually give into the ridiculous sums the giants will throw at you and pivot with that to your next endeavor.
