The verdict

Dayco IP Holdings, Llc has been granted 136 US utility patents between 2015 and 2023, placing Dayco IP Holdings, Llc at rank #2,819 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 46 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in F02M (SUPPLYING COMBUSTION ENGINES IN GENERAL WITH COMBUSTIBLE MIXTURES OR CONSTITUENTS THEREOF). As a US Corporation, Dayco IP Holdings, Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Dayco sits between Wuhan University (137 patents, rank #2,815) and Industry Academy Cooperation Foundation Of Sejong University (136 patents, rank #2,823) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 52.3/100 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 23 grants, compared with 113 in the 2015–2019 window, a -80% 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. Dayco IP Holdings, Llc's 15.2 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 46 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Dayco IP Holdings, Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Dayco's 136 grants land it in the top 10% 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.
