It's the perfect storm. According to Gene Quinn and IPWatchdog Unleashed, at least 800,000 patents are now backlogged. The number is more accurately estimated at 1.2 million. Why?  "As the result of increased fees put into effect by the previous Administration, there was a rush to file continuations earlier this year before the fees increased.... and more than 300,000 continuations were filed before the fee increases went into effect....And with job offers for up to 600 patent examiners withdrawn, and a fear that a similar number of probationary examiners, perhaps even more, will soon be terminated, no one knows for sure what the Office will do to address this historic backlog." This truth coupled with the tech explosion and AI stealing IP, we're in a desperate need for an IP solution that's faster, easier, and cheaper....just to keep up.
