Portfolio overview

AMDOCS SOFTWARE SYSTEMS LIMITED has been granted 165 US utility patents between 2015 and 2023, placing AMDOCS SOFTWARE SYSTEMS LIMITED at rank #2,369 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 18 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 13.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a Foreign Corporation, AMDOCS SOFTWARE SYSTEMS LIMITED is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 41.3/100 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 7 grants, compared with 158 in the 2015–2019 window — a -96% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. AMDOCS SOFTWARE SYSTEMS LIMITED's 13.5 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 18 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark AMDOCS SOFTWARE SYSTEMS LIMITED against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
