The Urgent IP Case Call Crisis
Missed After-Hours Calls During Critical Patent Prosecution Windows
During off-hours, urgent developments in patent prosecution—such as a sudden Office Action requiring a response within 3 months of the notice or a deadline to file a continuation application—can be missed. With 65% of IP law firms reporting lost clients due to delayed responses, a missed call during a priority date window or a last-minute request for a design patent amendment can jeopardize client outcomes and firm credibility. For example, failing to respond to a trademark opposition notice within 30 days of filing can result in automatic abandonment of the mark.
Inconsistent Communication During Inter Partes Review (IPR) Deadlines
IPR proceedings require precise timing—responding to a petition within 3 months of filing, submitting preliminary responses, and managing discovery timelines. Without consistent, immediate access to a legal team, clients may not receive timely updates on critical milestones. With 82% of potential clients expecting a response within 24 hours, a delay in acknowledging an IP infringement notice or a request for a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) review can lead to lost trust and missed opportunities, especially when a client is preparing for a high-stakes ex parte appeal.
Attorneys Losing 10+ Hours Weekly to Non-Value-Added Communication Tasks
IP attorneys spend an average of 12 hours per week managing client calls, scheduling consultations, and following up on urgent requests—time that could be spent on high-leverage activities like drafting claims for a complex utility patent, preparing for an inter partes review (IPR), or managing a multi-jurisdictional IP portfolio. This includes answering questions about copyright registration timelines, confirming deadlines for trademark renewals, or coordinating with clients on design patent filings, all of which are time-intensive when handled manually.

All client communications are handled through a HIPAA-compliant, encrypted platform with zero data retention, ensuring that sensitive information—such as details about a pending patent prosecution or confidential IP portfolio management strategy—is never exposed. The system uses role-based access and automatically logs all interactions, providing an audit trail for compliance with legal ethics rules and client confidentiality standards.
Cut Administrative Costs
Firms using our AI receptionist report a 78% reduction in time spent on call management, freeing up an average of 9.2 hours per attorney per week. This allows attorneys to focus on high-value tasks such as drafting claims for a complex utility patent, preparing for an ex parte appeal, or managing a multi-country copyright registration strategy—directly improving case outcomes and billable hours.
Real Results from Real Businesses
“We handle high-stakes patent prosecution for biotech clients, where missing a 3-month deadline to respond to an Office Action can invalidate a $50M patent portfolio. Last month, our AI receptionist flagged a call at 2:15 AM about a priority date conflict in a design patent application. It routed the alert to our lead attorney, who submitted a corrective filing within 2 hours. The client was thrilled—and we retained a $250K annual account. This isn’t just convenience; it’s risk mitigation.”

“Before switching to Answrr, we lost two clients in one quarter because they couldn’t reach us during a trademark opposition filing window. Now, our AI receptionist automatically confirms receipt of an IP infringement notice, sends a real-time summary to the assigned attorney, and books a consultation within 15 minutes. Our response rate to urgent matters has jumped from 41% to 96%—and we’ve seen a 30% increase in repeat business from clients who value our 24/7 responsiveness.”

Senior IP Attorney, Apex Trademark & Patent Law, Intellectual Property (IP) Law Firms
“The natural Rime Arcana voice is so lifelike that clients often assume they’re speaking to a human. One client called at 10:45 PM after receiving a notice of an inter partes review (IPR) petition. The AI receptionist confirmed the urgency, pulled the case file, and scheduled a call with our lead partner for 7:00 AM the next day—before the IPR filing deadline. The client later said, 'I didn’t expect a response this fast, but I’m glad I called.' That’s the kind of trust we’re building.”
