LexisNexis PatentAdvisor® Extension by LexisNexis IP

Most patent prosecutors work with aggressive time constraints and switching between the USPTO website to a third-party application to explore examiner statistics can be time-consuming.

Further, prosecutors lack reliable metrics to base their decision-making through the prosecution process. Only relying on the allowance rate can lead to wrong decisions resulting in rejects, increased costs, and time to grant.

That is why we developed the FREE LexisNexis PatentAdvisor Extension, making examiner statistics available right at the point of need, on the USPTO Private PAIR and Patent Center websites, providing immediate access to the most essential statistics:

• PatentAdvisor Examiner Time Allocation (ETA)
• PatentAdvisor QuickPAIR Timeline
• Allowance rate
• Average office actions to allowance
• Art unit allowance rate
• Art unit’s average office actions to allowance
