My company Dolcera (http://www.dolcera.com) participated in the pilot process for this USPTO service. We believe that we did a very thorough prior art search for each patent that was submitted - at least as good a search as the patent examiner would conduct. We believe that it's an excellent program and companies like ours can really help the patent system improve and improve quickly.
