Technology area: Computing & Software

9 pending office actions • 9 art units • 9 examiners • 0 of 9 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 4 patents granted in the last 365 days

Analysis

Technology Innovation Institute - Sole Proprietorship LLC has 8 pending office actions active in the Computing & Software technology area. These 8 actions are distributed among 8 distinct examiners and 8 distinct art units. Ayoub Alata is the busiest examiner with 1 pending action, matching the count for every other examiner in the set. The ratio of 8 pending office actions to 8 distinct examiners and 8 distinct art units indicates that every pending matter is being handled by a unique individual in a unique technical group.

This total dispersion across 8 distinct examiners and 8 distinct art units requires a customized prosecution approach for each of the 8 pending actions. Practitioners must manage 8 unique examiner relationships and navigate 8 different sets of art unit standards simultaneously. No single examiner or department holds a concentration of the portfolio, which prevents the use of a centralized strategy. The 8 pending office actions are thus subject to 8 independent evaluations across 8 different technical subgroups. This level of fragmentation reflects a range of computing and software technologies being patented, as each of the 8 actions is situated in a different art unit.
