34 pending office actions • 6 clients • 32 examiners • 29 art units • 3 of 34 (9%) have an AI response strategy ready • 39 patents granted in the last 365 days
Shichrur & Co. has 33 pending office actions in Networking & Security and 1285 career applications. The record presents an active docket with a meaningful application history in this technology area.
The resolved allowance rate is 96.73%, and allowed matters averaged 3.27 office actions per allowance. The allowance rate addresses resolved outcomes, while the action average reflects the examination activity associated with allowed matters. For practitioners, the combination offers separate insight into historical results and the interaction required before allowance, while the pending matters identify current work requiring attention.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 5 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. 5 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 | 3 (9%) |
| §103 only | 18 (53%) |
| §102 only | 1 (3%) |
| §112 only | 1 (3%) |
| Double-patenting only | 1 (3%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 8 (24%) |
| No statute on record | 2 (6%) |
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.
