Published by Patent 360 | June 30, 2025

How This Affects You

Whether you're developing a biotech diagnostic tool, a software platform, or a smart device, the 2025 update improves your chances of obtaining a patent — if the application is drafted strategically.

At Patent 360, we stay current with USPTO developments and tailor our claim strategies to match the latest guidance. This includes:

• Drafting claim sets that highlight technical improvements

• Framing method steps to avoid abstraction pitfalls

• Requesting preemptive examiner interviews when § 101 issues are anticipated

 Real-World Example

We recently filed a software application involving a system for optimizing medical image analysis using AI. Previously flagged for § 101 rejection in 2023, we refiled under the 2025 guidance, emphasizing how the algorithm improved computing efficiency and patient outcome prediction. The case passed § 101 review without amendment.

Let's Talk Strategy

If you've received a § 101 rejection — or you're planning to file in an area like AI, fintech, or biotech diagnostics — now is the time to act.
