Patent Capital Group-Match Group, LLC records 56 career applications in Computing & Software and has 6 pending office actions. The profile shows active prosecution alongside a defined application base.
The resolved allowance rate is 100.0%, and an allowed matter receives an average of 3.05 office actions. The outcome figure describes the reported resolved matters, while the office-action average indicates the examination activity preceding allowance. Practitioners can use these measures to review claim prosecution and anticipate response work.
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.
