The verdict
Exaptive holds 6 US patents across 3 technology areas, rank #40,130 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Exaptive, Inc. has been granted 6 US utility patents between 2020 and 2023, placing Exaptive, Inc. at rank #40,130 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 3 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 11.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a US Corporation, Exaptive, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Exaptive sits between Exacttarget, Inc. (6 patents, rank #40,126) and Expanding Innovations, Inc. (6 patents, rank #40,134) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 26.3/100 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. Historical data spans 2020 through 2023, with 6 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. 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. Exaptive, Inc.'s 11.3 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while specialization in 3 subclasses reflects a tightly scoped invention area. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Exaptive, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Exaptive's 6 grants land it in the top 80% 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.
