Portfolio overview

Foret Plasma Labs, Llc has been granted 41 US utility patents between 2015 and 2023, placing Foret Plasma Labs, Llc at rank #7,843 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 40 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 25.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in H05H (PLASMA TECHNIQUE ; PRODUCTION OF ACCELERATED ELECTRICALLY-CHARGED PARTICLES OR OF NEUTRONS; PRODUCTION OR ACCELERATION OF NEUTRAL MOLECULAR OR ATOMIC BEAMS). As a US Corporation, Foret Plasma Labs, Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Foret sits between FINE M-TEC Co., Ltd (41 patents, rank #7,839) and GEM Co., Ltd. (41 patents, rank #7,847) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 51.0/100 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 2 grants, compared with 39 in the 2015–2019 window, a -95% 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. Foret Plasma Labs, Llc's 25.9 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while a multi-domain presence across 40 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Foret Plasma Labs, Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
