The verdict
CONTEMPORARY holds 143 US patents across 7 technology areas — rank #2,704 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
CONTEMPORARY VISIONS, LLC has been granted 143 US utility patents between 2015 and 2023, placing CONTEMPORARY VISIONS, LLC at rank #2,704 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 7 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 4.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in F21S (NON-PORTABLE LIGHTING DEVICES; SYSTEMS THEREOF; VEHICLE LIGHTING DEVICES SPECIALLY ADAPTED FOR VEHICLE EXTERIORS). As a US Corporation, CONTEMPORARY VISIONS, LLC is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 29.1/100 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 14 grants, compared with 129 in the 2015–2019 window — a -89% 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. CONTEMPORARY VISIONS, LLC's 4.0 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 7 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark CONTEMPORARY VISIONS, LLC against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
