USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 167 granted patents across 14 technology areas, active 2015–2023. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: G07F (COIN-FREED OR LIKE APPARATUS).
The verdict
Aruze holds 167 US patents across 14 technology areas, rank #2,342 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Aruze Gaming America, Inc. has been granted 167 US utility patents between 2015 and 2023, placing Aruze Gaming America, Inc. at rank #2,342 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 14 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 9.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in G07F (COIN-FREED OR LIKE APPARATUS). As a US Corporation, Aruze Gaming America, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Aruze sits between The Government Of The United States, As Represented By The Secretary Of The Army (168 patents, rank #2,338) and J. C. Bamford Excavators Limited (167 patents, rank #2,346) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 39.3/100 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 5 grants, compared with 162 in the 2015–2019 window, a -97% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Aruze Gaming America, Inc.'s 9.2 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 14 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Aruze Gaming America, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Aruze's 167 grants land it in the top 38% 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.
