Cut office action response time in half. AI parses rejections, drafts arguments, and suggests amendments informed by examiner history and prior art analysis.

ArcPrime Patent Lifecycle — Prosecution stage highlighted

Common Challenges

The most common obstacles IP teams face today.

Time-consuming analysis

Attorneys spend hours reading and parsing office actions, identifying rejection bases, and mapping cited references to individual claims.

Tight response deadlines

Three-month statutory deadlines leave little room for delay—especially when juggling dozens of pending applications simultaneously.

Costly multiple rounds

Each additional office action round adds $3K–$10K in prosecution costs. Weak initial responses trigger unnecessary follow-up rejections.

Inconsistent strategy

Without data on what works for a specific examiner, attorneys draft arguments blind—leading to hit-or-miss responses.

Key Features

Core capabilities designed to solve your most critical IP challenges.

Automated OA Parsing

AI extracts and structures every rejection, objection, and requirement from office action documents—across USPTO, EPO, and other offices.

Argument Drafting

AI generates draft arguments for each rejection, citing relevant case law, MPEP sections, and distinguishing features over the cited art.

Amendment Suggestions

AI recommends claim amendments that address rejections while preserving maximum claim scope, informed by prior art gap analysis.

Examiner-Informed Strategy

Responses are tailored to the specific examiner's history—what arguments they accept, interview preferences, and allowance patterns.

Cited Art Analysis

AI analyzes every reference cited in the office action, mapping cited passages to claim elements and identifying weak points in the rejection.

Response Tracking

Track response status, deadlines, and outcomes across your entire portfolio with automated alerts for approaching due dates.
