The verdict
Fositek holds 88 US patents across 29 technology areas, rank #4,081 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Fositek Corporation has been granted 88 US utility patents between 2019 and 2025, placing Fositek Corporation at rank #4,081 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 29 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 10.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a Foreign Corporation, Fositek Corporation is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Fositek sits between Blackhawk Network, Inc. (88 patents, rank #4,077) and Institut National DES Sciences Appliquées DE LYON (88 patents, rank #4,085) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 55.5/100 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 82 grants, compared with 6 in the 2015–2019 window, a +1267% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The Foreign 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. Fositek Corporation's 10.4 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 29 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Fositek Corporation against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Fositek's 88 grants land it in the top 7% 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.
