Portfolio overview

Canoo Technologies Inc. has been granted 91 US utility patents between 2021 and 2025, placing Canoo Technologies Inc. at rank #3,958 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 24 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 11.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in B62D (MOTOR VEHICLES; TRAILERS). As a US Corporation, Canoo Technologies Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Canoo sits between Anhui Huami Information Technology Co., Ltd. (91 patents, rank #3,954) and DANA Italia S.r.l. (91 patents, rank #3,962) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 60.0/100 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 91 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. 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. Canoo Technologies Inc.'s 11.8 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 24 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Canoo Technologies Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

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.
