What are the percentage of patents that get approved?
This number is always in flux, so what may be accurate today will be inaccurate tomorrow. It is safe to say that somewhere around 45% of the patent applications that are submitted are approved. This is in contrast to the norm 5-10 years ago when the approval rate hovered around 70%. Some argue that the approval rate dropping is a good thing, others counter that argument. All we care to argue is that our approval rate will exceed the USPTO average at any given time in the future.
