GET
Examiner Intelligence
Get an intelligence profile for a USPTO patent examiner, including historical allowance rates, rejection patterns, and interview success rates.

Name format

Examiner names must be in LASTNAME, FIRSTNAME M format and URL-encoded:
Use the /lookup endpoint first to get the exact examiner name from a patent application. The examiner_name field in the lookup response is already in the correct format.

Use cases

  • Pre-analysis: Check examiner behavior before choosing a response strategy
  • Interview prep: High interview_success_rate suggests scheduling an examiner interview
  • Workload assessment: avg_actions_to_allowance indicates how many rounds to expect
