Analysis

Compass IP Law PC has 85 pending office actions in Computing & Software and a career application record of 2965. The profile combines an active docket with a substantial historical application record in computing and software technologies.

Its resolved allowance rate is 89.04%, and the average is 3.41 office actions per allowance. These measures show the recorded allowance outcome for resolved matters and the average examination activity associated with allowances. They can help practitioners frame staffing and response expectations while recognizing that software matters may present different eligibility, claim-construction, and prior-art questions.

The pending docket should be evaluated at the file level. The historical figures do not identify the basis for any office action, the scope of pending claims, or the procedural posture of individual applications.

Written from this page's own data; every figure is computed from USPTO records and verified before publication.
