Frore Systems Inc. operates within the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area and currently has 5 pending office actions. These actions are distributed among 5 distinct examiners, which shows that each pending matter is being handled by a different individual. Despite the variety of examiners, the prosecution is concentrated within 2 distinct art units.
The busiest examiner, PAPE, ZACHARY, is currently managing 1 pending office action. This figure of 1 is consistent with the overall distribution, as the 5 pending office actions are spread evenly across 5 distinct examiners. The concentration of these matters into 2 distinct art units suggests that while the examiners vary, the technical focus remains within a limited set of examination groups.
The portfolio's 5 pending office actions represent the company's current level of activity in the semiconductor and optics space. Because the busiest examiner pending count is only 1, the company does not face a backlog with any single examiner. The 2 distinct art units involved indicate that the 5 pending actions are grouped into specific technical clusters within the broader technology area.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §112 only | 1 (20%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (80%) |
How the docket's pending cases split across USPTO tech-center bands.
Manual office-action response work runs about 10 hours per case. The time-saved bands below show what IP Author's prosecution pipeline typically delivers — a conservative 20% on the low end, 35% in the middle, 50% on the high end.
