USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 5 granted patents across 3 technology areas, active 2023–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: H04L (TRANSMISSION OF DIGITAL INFORMATION, e.g. TELEGRAPHIC COMMUNICATION).
The verdict
Franklin holds 5 US patents across 3 technology areas, rank #46,767 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Franklin Technology Inc. has been granted 5 US utility patents between 2023 and 2025, placing Franklin Technology Inc. at rank #46,767 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 3 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 10.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in H04L (TRANSMISSION OF DIGITAL INFORMATION, e.g. TELEGRAPHIC COMMUNICATION). As a Foreign Corporation, Franklin Technology Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Franklin sits between Fp-pigments OY (5 patents, rank #46,763) and Freevolt Technologies Limited (5 patents, rank #46,771) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 38.7/100 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 2023 through 2025, with 5 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. 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. Franklin Technology Inc.'s 10.6 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 Franklin Technology Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Franklin's 5 grants land it in the top 40% 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.
