Portfolio overview
Aeva, Inc. has been granted 172 US utility patents between 2021 and 2025, placing Aeva, Inc. at rank #2,274 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 29 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in G01S (RADIO DIRECTION-FINDING; RADIO NAVIGATION; DETERMINING DISTANCE OR VELOCITY BY USE OF RADIO WAVES; LOCATING OR PRESENCE-DETECTING BY USE OF THE REFLECTION OR RERADIATION OF RADIO WAVES; ANALOGOUS ARRA). As a US Corporation, Aeva, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Aeva sits between The Government Of The United States Of America, As Represented By The Secretary Of Homeland Security (173 patents, rank #2,270) and M-I L.l.c. (172 patents, rank #2,278) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 67.7/100 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. Historical data spans 2021 through 2025, with 172 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. The US 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. Aeva, Inc.'s 18.1 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 29 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Aeva, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
