Examiner Isaac M Woo has allowed 1,516 of 1,678 decided applications (90%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Isaac M Woo has a public record of 1,717 total applications across 5 art units within Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Of 1,678 disposed applications, 1,516 were allowed, yielding an overall allowance rate of 90%. The examiner's work spans multiple art units in TC 2100, with allowance rates ranging from 70% to 94% across these units. This pooled figure aggregates the examiner's decisions across all assigned art units and reflects historical disposition outcomes only.
A pooled record combines an examiner's allowance rates and application counts across all their assigned art units into a single aggregate profile. This combined figure describes past outcomes and does not predict results on any specific application. The range shown reflects variation in allowance rates among the examiner's individual art units; the overall rate is a weighted average across those units. Pooled data is useful for understanding an examiner's overall record but does not account for differences in art-unit-specific standards or application complexity.
These are aggregate statistics from this examiner's past public record — not predictions about any specific application. The per-art-unit figures below show how the record varies across art units. Our approach to patent prosecution →
Each section benchmarks this examiner against that art unit's average. Figures are this examiner's own public record within the art unit; the overall rate above pools them.

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Isaac M Woo has a public record within Technology Center 2100. Statistics are computed from publicly available USPTO records, refreshed on a recurring schedule. This page's data was last updated June 25, 2026. The overall allowance rate is total allowed divided by total decided applications (allowed plus abandoned) across all art units — not an average of the per-art-unit rates; pending applications are excluded. Figures are rounded for display. Pooled sample: 1,717 applications.

These statistics describe past examiner behavior and do not predict the outcome of any particular application. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. Where this page compares an examiner's allowance rate to an art-unit average, that comparison is a factual description of the public record, not a characterization of any individual examiner's conduct or competence.
