Speaking as someone who has multiple patents to their name.
Ideas are a dime a dozen....execution matters.
In essence even if it hasn't been done before....does anyone want to buy it? Because if the answer is no you'll have spend at least a few thousand dollars on a piece of paper that has no real value.
If you know what you're doing you could write a patent disclosure and file it relatively cheaply(i.e. around $100) and it would buy you a year to develop the idea and find out if it's worth anything before the real patent has to be filed.
But if you're asking this question you don't really know what you are doing and you're going to need an attorney to write it for you. This is because if you write a disclosure wrong then it will just get thrown out and be useless to establish date.
But really spend the time to build it, find out if people even want it. THEN worry about trying to patent it.
There is no magic patent something and then tada rake in the billions of dollars.
