Get to Know Your Patent Examiner

What we do icon

What we do

Patent Bots has a page for each USPTO patent examiner that shows statistics describing his or her behavior during prosecution. The examiner pages are generated using data obtained directly from the USPTO and are updated on a regular basis.

How stats help icon

How stats help

Our statistics are designed to help you answer the questions you are asking yourself during prosecution, such as "Should I amend my claims?", "Should I interview the examiner?", and "Should I appeal?"

Free and premium tiers icon

Free and premium tiers

We have two tiers of statistics: Free Statistics and Premium Statistics. Free Statistics are available to all logged-in users, and no subscription is required. Premium Statistics require a paid subscription, and you can see pricing on our pricing page.
