Reciprocal Labs Corporation (D/B/A Propeller Health) operates within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area and currently has 1 pending office action. This activity is confined to the distinct art units identified in the data, showing a concentrated focus for the company's current patent applications. By having its pending office action in a single area, the company avoids the complexity of managing disparate technical requirements across multiple USPTO divisions.
The portfolio is currently assigned to the distinct examiners listed, including VANDER WOUDE, KIMBERLY ELAINE. This examiner is the busiest examiner for the company and maintains a busiest examiner pending count of 1. Because the busiest examiner pending count matches the total number of pending office actions, the company's entire active prosecution is handled by this single individual. This creates a direct relationship between the company's patent success and the specific preferences of VANDER WOUDE, KIMBERLY ELAINE.
The presence of the specified examiner and art unit indicates a streamlined prosecution path. Practitioners can focus their resources on the specific requirements of this examiner rather than balancing multiple prosecution styles. The current data shows that the company's immediate intellectual property goals are centered on resolving the pending action in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems sector.
