This profile covers Computing & Software and shows 60 pending office actions. The record includes 1640 career applications, providing substantial historical context for the active docket.
The resolved allowance rate is 92.82%, and the average is 4.25 office actions per allowance. The resolved portfolio shows a high allowance rate, but matters reaching allowance generally involved several examination actions.
The combination of a substantial pending workload and extended prosecution path makes docket prioritization important. Practitioners can use the allowance rate as an outcome benchmark while using the action average to anticipate repeated responses during examination of computing and software claims.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 39 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 39 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
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 + other | 2 (3%) |
| §103 only | 15 (25%) |
| §102 only | 7 (12%) |
| §112 only | 5 (8%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 31 (52%) |
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.
