Portfolio overview

BIGO TECHNOLOGY PTE. LTD. has been granted 56 US utility patents between 2021 and 2025, placing BIGO TECHNOLOGY PTE. LTD. at rank #6,007 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 17 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 16.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in H04N (PICTORIAL COMMUNICATION, e.g. TELEVISION). As a Foreign Corporation, BIGO TECHNOLOGY PTE. LTD. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 58.4/100 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. Historical data spans 2021 through 2025, with 56 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. 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. BIGO TECHNOLOGY PTE. LTD.'s 16.4 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 17 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark BIGO TECHNOLOGY PTE. LTD. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio

BIGO's 56 grants land it in the top 4% by Innovation Score — but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.

  • Read that count against the largest US assignees before treating it as dominance — BIGO ranks #6,007 of 50,000. Top 50 holders
  • Most of this portfolio concentrates in H04N — see who else leads that technology area. H04N leaders
  • Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

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.
