USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 324 granted patents across 60 technology areas, active 2018–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: G01R (MEASURING ELECTRIC VARIABLES; MEASURING MAGNETIC VARIABLES).
The verdict
Ablic holds 324 US patents across 60 technology areas, rank #1,306 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Ablic Inc. has been granted 324 US utility patents between 2018 and 2025, placing Ablic Inc. at rank #1,306 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 60 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 7.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in G01R (MEASURING ELECTRIC VARIABLES; MEASURING MAGNETIC VARIABLES). As a Foreign Corporation, Ablic Inc. is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Ablic sits between University OF Connecticut (326 patents, rank #1,302) and UAB 360 IT (324 patents, rank #1,310) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 52.2/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 202 grants, compared with 122 in the 2015–2019 window, a +66% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.
Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Ablic Inc.'s 7.8 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 60 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Ablic Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Ablic's 324 grants land it in the top 10% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
