CAN Technologies, Inc. has been granted 15 US utility patents between 2020 and 2025, placing CAN Technologies, Inc. at #18,461 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 13 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in A23K (FODDER). As a US Corporation, CAN Technologies, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, CAN sits between Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (15 patents, rank #18,457) and Caruse Design, Inc. (15 patents, rank #18,465) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 51.6/100 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 15 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. CAN Technologies, Inc.'s 15.5 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 13 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
