Portfolio overview

Anvil International, LLC has been granted 44 US utility patents between 2017 and 2021, placing Anvil International, LLC at rank #7,373 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 15 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 13.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in F16L (PIPES; JOINTS OR FITTINGS FOR PIPES; SUPPORTS FOR PIPES, CABLES OR PROTECTIVE TUBING; MEANS FOR THERMAL INSULATION IN GENERAL). As a US Corporation, Anvil International, LLC is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 35.2/100 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 25 grants, compared with 19 in the 2015–2019 window — a +32% 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. Anvil International, LLC's 13.9 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 15 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Anvil International, LLC against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
