USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 132 granted patents across 86 technology areas, active 2017–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: B33Y (ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING, i.e. MANUFACTURING OF THREE-DIMENSIONAL [3-D] OBJECTS BY ADDITIVE DEPOSITION, ADDITIVE AGGLOMERATION OR ADDITIVE LAYERING, e.g. BY 3-D PRINTING, STEREOLITHOGRAPHY OR SELECTIVE ).
The verdict
Divergent holds 132 US patents across 86 technology areas, rank #2,891 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Divergent Technologies, Inc. has been granted 132 US utility patents between 2017 and 2025, placing Divergent Technologies, Inc. at rank #2,891 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 86 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 22.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in B33Y (ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING, i.e. MANUFACTURING OF THREE-DIMENSIONAL [3-D] OBJECTS BY ADDITIVE DEPOSITION, ADDITIVE AGGLOMERATION OR ADDITIVE LAYERING, e.g. BY 3-D PRINTING, STEREOLITHOGRAPHY OR SELECTIVE ). As a US Corporation, Divergent Technologies, Inc. is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Divergent sits between Cambricon Technologies Corporation Limited (132 patents, rank #2,887) and Hefei University Of Technology (132 patents, rank #2,895) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 65.3/100 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 122 grants, compared with 10 in the 2015–2019 window, a +1120% 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. Divergent Technologies, Inc.'s 22.8 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while a multi-domain presence across 86 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Divergent Technologies, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Divergent's 132 grants land it in the top 1% 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.
