Portfolio overview
Borland Software Corporation has been granted 5 US utility patents between 2015 and 2019, placing Borland Software Corporation at rank #45,350 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 2 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 11.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a US Corporation, Borland Software Corporation is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Borland sits between Boingo Wireless, Inc. (5 patents, rank #45,346) and Bouldin Corporation (5 patents, rank #45,354) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 17.8/100 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 0 grants, compared with 5 in the 2015–2019 window, a -100% 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. Borland Software Corporation's 11.0 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while specialization in 2 subclasses reflects a tightly scoped invention area. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Borland Software Corporation against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
