// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This profile aggregates the examiner's record across all their assigned art units in TC 2100. The allowance rate and application counts are pooled figures, meaning they combine data from multiple art units if present. Aggregate statistics describe historical disposal patterns and are correlational only—they do not predict specific application outcomes or reflect examiner intent. Each application is distinct and subject to its own claim language, prior art, and prosecution history.

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 →

METHODOLOGY & DISCLOSURES

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Ponnoreay Pich 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: 74 applications.

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.
