IPSILON USA focuses on Chemistry & Materials and has 2,670 career applications recorded. Its resolved allowance rate is 81.42%, indicating that allowance was achieved in a substantial portion of resolved matters, while a notable share did not reach allowance.
The firm has 46 pending office actions, reflecting an active examination workload. Allowed matters averaged 3.33 office actions, showing that allowance generally required multiple responses. Practitioners should evaluate the profile through both lenses: a meaningful application record and active docket, paired with a resolved outcome that involved a relatively involved response process.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 9 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. 9 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 | 5 (11%) |
| §103 only | 15 (32%) |
| §102 only | 1 (2%) |
| §112 only | 2 (4%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 24 (51%) |
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.
