Portfolio overview

Advics Co., Ltd. has been granted 421 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Advics Co., Ltd. at rank #1,035 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 54 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 7.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in B60T (VEHICLE BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEMS OR PARTS THEREOF; BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEMS OR PARTS THEREOF, IN GENERAL ; ARRANGEMENT OF BRAKING ELEMENTS ON VEHICLES IN GENERAL; PORTABLE DEVICES FOR PREVENTING UNWANTED MO). As a Foreign Corporation, Advics Co., Ltd. is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Advics sits between IOWA State University Research Foundation, Inc. (424 patents, rank #1,031) and Scania CV AB (420 patents, rank #1,039) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 57.3/100 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 214 grants, compared with 207 in the 2015–2019 window, a +3% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. 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. Advics Co., Ltd.'s 7.2 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 54 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Advics Co., Ltd. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

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.
