USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 223 granted patents across 12 technology areas, active 2015–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: H01Q (ANTENNAS, i.e. RADIO AERIALS).
The verdict
Airgain holds 223 US patents across 12 technology areas, rank #1,819 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Airgain, Inc. has been granted 223 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Airgain, Inc. at rank #1,819 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 12 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 3.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in H01Q (ANTENNAS, i.e. RADIO AERIALS). As a US Corporation, Airgain, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Airgain sits between JNC Petrochemical Corporation (224 patents, rank #1,815) and Leviton Manufacturing Co., Inc. (222 patents, rank #1,823) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 34.7/100 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. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 51 grants, compared with 172 in the 2015–2019 window, a -70% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Airgain, Inc.'s 3.1 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 12 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Airgain, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Airgain's 223 grants land it in the top 51% 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.
