How we track United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO)
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
