The verdict
Foreo holds 40 US patents across 9 technology areas — rank #8,025 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
FOREO Inc. has been granted 40 US utility patents between 2019 and 2024, placing FOREO Inc. at rank #8,025 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 9 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 4.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61H (PHYSICAL THERAPY APPARATUS, e.g. DEVICES FOR LOCATING OR STIMULATING REFLEX POINTS IN THE BODY; ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION; MASSAGE; BATHING DEVICES FOR SPECIAL THERAPEUTIC OR HYGIENIC PURPOSES OR SPECIFI). As a US Corporation, FOREO Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 30.0/100 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 35 grants, compared with 5 in the 2015–2019 window — a +600% 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. FOREO Inc.'s 4.3 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 9 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark FOREO Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Foreo's 40 grants land it in the top 67% 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.
