Prerequisites

  • You have admin or settings access in your ArcPrime workspace.

Understanding Units

Compute Units power all AI features and automated actions in ArcPrime. Each AI-driven task -- such as generating an office action response, running a prior art search, or applying labels -- consumes units from your workspace balance.

Steps

Check Your Balance

  1. Open Settings from the sidebar.

  2. Select Units from the settings menu.

  3. Your current balance appears in the top-right corner of the page inside a badge. The badge border color indicates your balance status:

    • Green β€” Healthy balance with units available.

    • Orange β€” Balance is running low.

    • Red β€” Balance is zero or negative. AI features may be restricted.

View Transaction History

  1. On the Units page, scroll down to the Usage History table.

  2. Each row shows a single transaction with four columns:

    • Case β€” The patent or disclosure associated with the task. Click the case link to open it.

    • Task β€” The type of AI action performed (e.g., OA Response, Prior Art Search, Continuation Recommendation).

    • Units Spent β€” The number of units consumed.

    • Date β€” When the transaction occurred.

  3. Click column headers to sort by Units Spent or Date.

  4. Use the pagination controls at the bottom to navigate through older transactions.

Tip: Monitor your usage regularly. If your balance reaches zero, contact your ArcPrime account manager to add more units and avoid interruptions to AI-powered workflows.
