What this shows CPI CARD Group-colorado, Inc. stamps GRANTS-SMALL, UPPER-Q, PHOTO-FINISH, CPC-FOCUS, INNOV-PAR, CLAIMS-DENSE, TYPE-USCORP, VEL-DOWN, BOOK-FULL. Volume places it #9,744 of 50,000; Innovation Score 45.2/100 sits in the top 24% of the PatentsView-derived corpus. Closest grant-volume peer on this plate is Canrig Drilling Technology Ltd. (±0 grants).
CPI CARD Group-colorado, Inc. has been granted 32 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing CPI CARD Group-colorado, Inc. at #9,744 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 21 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 21.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06K (GRAPHICAL DATA READING ; PRESENTATION OF DATA; RECORD CARRIERS; HANDLING RECORD CARRIERS). As a US Corporation, CPI CARD Group-colorado, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, CPI sits between Chongqing Konka Photoelectric Technology Research Institute Co., Ltd (32 patents, rank #9,731) and Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Linkou (32 patents, rank #9,739) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 45.2/100 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. Between 2020 and 2024 the company received 14 grants, compared with 16 in the 2015–2019 window, a -12% shift in five-year grant velocity. Both windows cover five complete grant years; the latest PatentsView year is a partial release and is excluded from this comparison, though it still appears in the yearly table and chart below. 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. CPI CARD Group-colorado, Inc.'s 21.6 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 21 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
