USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 274 granted patents across 23 technology areas, active 2015–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING).
The verdict
Acronis holds 274 US patents across 23 technology areas, rank #1,514 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Acronis International Gmbh has been granted 274 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Acronis International Gmbh at rank #1,514 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 23 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 17.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a Foreign Corporation, Acronis International Gmbh is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Acronis sits between Phillips 66 Company (275 patents, rank #1,510) and National Instruments Corporation (274 patents, rank #1,518) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 57.5/100 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 221 grants, compared with 53 in the 2015–2019 window, a +317% 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. Acronis International Gmbh's 17.9 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 23 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Acronis International Gmbh against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Acronis's 274 grants land it in the top 5% 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.
