Analysis

Shreyans A. Patel works within Tech Center 2600 and Art Unit 2129. With 415 resolved cases, the examiner has an allowance rate of 88.7%. This 88.7% rate indicates a high frequency of patent grants compared to examiners with lower percentages. The median days to allowance is 752, which is an efficient timeline for the prosecution process. These 415 cases provide a robust data set for understanding the examiner's typical workflow and decision-making patterns.

The interview lift for this examiner is 8.5%. While the overall allowance rate is already 88.7%, the 8.5% lift shows that interviews still provide a measurable benefit in securing an allowance. Practitioners should consider the 752-day median pendency when planning their filing and response schedules. The combination of a high allowance rate and a positive interview lift suggests that the examiner is open to both written and verbal arguments. These metrics from Art Unit 2129 help applicants set realistic expectations for their interactions with the patent office.
