Overall rank by patents
#6,507
of 50,000 tracked assignees
USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 51 granted patents across 12 technology areas, recorded in grant years 2020–2025. Grant-trend analysis is cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search; it does not measure application filings, current R&D, or legal strength. Primary class: G05D (SYSTEMS FOR CONTROLLING OR REGULATING NON-ELECTRIC VARIABLES).
The verdict
According to USPTO PatentsView, Built ranks #6,507 of 50,000 tracked US assignees by granted-patent volume, with 51 patents across 12 technology areas.
Built Robotics Inc. has been granted 51 US utility patents between 2020 and 2025, placing Built Robotics Inc. at #6,507 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 12 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 21.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in G05D (SYSTEMS FOR CONTROLLING OR REGULATING NON-ELECTRIC VARIABLES). As a US Corporation, Built Robotics Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Built sits between Agenus Inc. (51 patents, rank #6,503) and Card-monroe Corp. (51 patents, rank #6,511) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 58.8/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Historical data spans 2020 through 2025, with 51 total grants over that period. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The US Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.
Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Built Robotics Inc.'s 21.5 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 12 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Built's 51 grants land it in the top 4% 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.
