The verdict
Dassault holds 72 US patents across 27 technology areas, rank #4,814 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Dassault Systemes Simulia Corp. has been granted 72 US utility patents between 2015 and 2023, placing Dassault Systemes Simulia Corp. at rank #4,814 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 27 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 21.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a US Corporation, Dassault Systemes Simulia Corp. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Dassault sits between China National Petroleum Corporation (72 patents, rank #4,810) and FU DING Electronical Technology (jiashan) Co., Ltd. (72 patents, rank #4,818) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 49.4/100 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 45 grants, compared with 27 in the 2015–2019 window, a +67% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Dassault Systemes Simulia Corp.'s 21.0 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while a multi-domain presence across 27 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Dassault Systemes Simulia Corp. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Dassault's 72 grants land it in the top 15% 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.
