Portfolio overview

AWI Licensing Llc has been granted 214 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing AWI Licensing Llc at rank #1,871 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 50 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 16.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in E04B (GENERAL BUILDING CONSTRUCTIONS; WALLS, e.g. PARTITIONS; ROOFS; FLOORS; CEILINGS; INSULATION OR OTHER PROTECTION OF BUILDINGS). As a US Corporation, AWI Licensing Llc is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, AWI sits between SAAB AB (215 patents, rank #1,867) and Grundfos Holding A/s (214 patents, rank #1,875) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 63.7/100 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 125 grants, compared with 89 in the 2015–2019 window, a +40% 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. AWI Licensing Llc's 16.4 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 50 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark AWI Licensing Llc 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.
