Portfolio overview

Blank Acquisition, Llc has been granted 10 US utility patents between 2015 and 2020, placing Blank Acquisition, Llc at rank #25,915 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 12 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 16.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in B42D (BOOKS; BOOK COVERS; LOOSE LEAVES; PRINTED MATTER CHARACTERISED BY IDENTIFICATION OR SECURITY FEATURES; PRINTED MATTER OF SPECIAL FORMAT OR STYLE NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR; DEVICES FOR USE THEREWITH A). As a US Corporation, Blank Acquisition, Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Blank sits between Bitro Group, Inc. (10 patents, rank #25,911) and Bluedata Software, Inc. (10 patents, rank #25,919) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 30.1/100 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 2 grants, compared with 8 in the 2015–2019 window, a -75% 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. Blank Acquisition, Llc's 16.0 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 12 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Blank Acquisition, Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
