22 pending office actions • 9 art units • 19 examiners • 0 of 22 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 88 patents granted in the last 365 days
Wiz Inc. operates within the Networking & Security technology area with a total of 22 pending office actions. These 22 pending office actions are distributed across 9 distinct art units. This distribution shows that the number of pending actions is higher than the number of 9 distinct art units involved in the prosecution process. The company interacts with 19 distinct examiners to manage these filings.
The busiest examiner identified in the data is AHSAN, SYED M, who is currently handling 2 busiest examiner pending office actions. These 2 busiest examiner pending office actions are a subset of the total pending office actions currently active for the company. The 19 distinct examiners assigned to the portfolio are more numerous than the 9 distinct art units where the cases are being reviewed. This indicates that many art units contain multiple examiners working on the company's matters.
Practitioners should note that AHSAN, SYED M manages 2 busiest examiner pending office actions, while the other actions are spread among the other distinct examiners. The Networking & Security technology area serves as the primary classification for this work. With 19 distinct examiners, the portfolio shows engagement with the patent office staff across the various art units identified in the data.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 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 |
|---|---|
| §101 only | 1 (5%) |
| §101 + other | 7 (32%) |
| §103 only | 8 (36%) |
| Double-patenting only | 2 (9%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (18%) |
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.
