Patent Examiner Analytics

Know your examiner before you respond. AI-powered examiner profiling reveals allowance patterns, preferred arguments, and interview tendencies.

ArcPrime Patent Lifecycle — Prosecution stage highlighted

Common Challenges

The most common obstacles IP teams face today.

Blind prosecution

Attorneys respond to office actions without knowing the examiner's track record—wasting time on arguments that won't work.

No interview intelligence

Deciding whether to request an examiner interview is guesswork without data on that examiner's interview allowance rate.

Art unit variability

Allowance rates vary 3x across art units. Without this context, you cannot set realistic expectations or tailor strategy.

Scattered data

Examiner information is spread across PAIR, prosecution histories, and institutional knowledge that walks out the door with turnover.

Key Features

Core capabilities designed to solve your most critical IP challenges.

Examiner Profiles

Comprehensive profiles for 10K+ active examiners—allowance rates, average prosecution time, rejection bases, and technology focus.

Rejection Pattern Analysis

See which rejection types each examiner uses most, which arguments they accept, and how they respond to specific claim amendments.

Interview Intelligence

Analyze an examiner's interview-to-allowance rate, preferred interview formats, and typical outcomes to decide when interviews are worth pursuing.

Art Unit Benchmarks

Compare your prosecution outcomes against art unit averages to identify underperforming applications and optimization opportunities.

Examiner Comparison

Compare examiners side-by-side on key metrics to calibrate expectations when applications are assigned or reassigned.

Strategy Recommendations

AI recommends prosecution tactics—amend, argue, interview, or appeal—based on what has historically worked with each examiner.
