Portfolio overview
Duelight Llc has been granted 89 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Duelight Llc at rank #4,036 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 9 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 25.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in H04N (PICTORIAL COMMUNICATION, e.g. TELEVISION). As a US Corporation, Duelight Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Duelight sits between Bushnell Inc. (89 patents, rank #4,032) and EIZO Corporation (89 patents, rank #4,040) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 44.6/100 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 37 grants, compared with 52 in the 2015–2019 window, a -29% 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. Duelight Llc's 25.2 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while concentration in 9 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Duelight Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

- Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works
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.
