Portfolio overview

Anello Photonics, Inc. has been granted 31 US utility patents between 2020 and 2025, placing Anello Photonics, Inc. at #9,968 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 6 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 19.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in G01C (MEASURING DISTANCES, LEVELS OR BEARINGS; SURVEYING; NAVIGATION; GYROSCOPIC INSTRUMENTS; PHOTOGRAMMETRY OR VIDEOGRAMMETRY). As a US Corporation, Anello Photonics, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Anello sits between Allergan Pharmaceuticals International Limited (31 patents, rank #9,965) and Atomic Design Inc. (31 patents, rank #9,973) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 50.2/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Historical data spans 2020 through 2025, with 31 total grants over that period. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The US Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.

Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Anello Photonics, Inc.'s 19.2 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 6 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.

Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

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.
