Insight Direct USA Inc. maintains a broad patent portfolio with 19 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. This portfolio is highly decentralized, spanning 13 distinct art units and involving 16 distinct examiners. Such a wide distribution suggests a diverse range of technical innovations that do not fit into a single regulatory or examination silo. The busiest examiner is CHEIN, ALLEN C, who handles 2 of the pending actions.
With 16 different examiners involved, the company must manage a variety of examination styles and technical perspectives. The presence of 13 distinct art units further underscores the complexity of the portfolio, as it requires familiarity with numerous different examination guidelines and prior art landscapes. This level of dispersion, with 19 pending actions across 13 distinct art units, indicates that the company's research and development efforts are not concentrated in one specific technical area. Instead, the intellectual property strategy must be flexible enough to address the requirements of 16 distinct examiners.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 6 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 6 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
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 |
|---|---|
| §101 only | 8 (38%) |
| §101 + other | 6 (29%) |
| §103 only | 5 (24%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (10%) |
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.
