Seekops Inc. has 3 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The matters are distributed across 3 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units, so the portfolio does not show concentration in a single examiner or unit.
DAGER, JONATHAN M is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. That figure indicates that the largest examiner share is limited, which supports separate matter-by-matter review rather than a single examiner-focused prosecution strategy.
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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 1 (33%) |
| Double-patenting only | 1 (33%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (33%) |
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.
