The verdict
Antares holds 82 US patents across 6 technology areas, rank #4,319 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Antares Pharma, Inc. has been granted 82 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Antares Pharma, Inc. at rank #4,319 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 6 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 19.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61M (DEVICES FOR INTRODUCING MEDIA INTO, OR ONTO, THE BODY ; DEVICES FOR TRANSDUCING BODY MEDIA OR FOR TAKING MEDIA FROM THE BODY ; DEVICES FOR PRODUCING OR ENDING SLEEP OR STUPOR). As a US Corporation, Antares Pharma, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Antares sits between Acucela Inc. (82 patents, rank #4,315) and CBS Interactive Inc. (82 patents, rank #4,323) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 40.0/100 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 48 grants, compared with 34 in the 2015–2019 window, a +41% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. 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. Antares Pharma, Inc.'s 19.5 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 6 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Antares Pharma, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Antares's 82 grants land it in the top 37% 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.
