Portfolio overview

Deepmind Technologies Limited has been granted 303 US utility patents between 2018 and 2025, placing Deepmind Technologies Limited at rank #1,384 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 23 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 20.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06N (COMPUTING ARRANGEMENTS BASED ON SPECIFIC COMPUTATIONAL MODELS). As a Foreign Corporation, Deepmind Technologies Limited is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Deepmind sits between Keyence Corporation (304 patents, rank #1,380) and Assistance Publique—hôpitaux DE Paris (aphp) (302 patents, rank #1,388) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 60.7/100 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 286 grants, compared with 17 in the 2015–2019 window, a +1582% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The Foreign 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. Deepmind Technologies Limited's 20.6 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while a multi-domain presence across 23 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Deepmind Technologies Limited against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
