Portfolio overview

Applied Materials Israel Ltd. has been granted 353 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Applied Materials Israel Ltd. at rank #1,201 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 45 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06T (IMAGE DATA PROCESSING OR GENERATION, IN GENERAL). As a Foreign Corporation, Applied Materials Israel Ltd. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Applied sits between Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction Co., Ltd. (354 patents, rank #1,197) and Seiko Instruments Inc. (352 patents, rank #1,205) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 61.9/100 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 199 grants, compared with 154 in the 2015–2019 window, a +29% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. 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. Applied Materials Israel Ltd.'s 18.0 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 45 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Applied Materials Israel Ltd. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

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.
