The verdict
FREE holds 36 US patents across 8 technology areas, rank #8,797 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
FREE Stream Media Corp. has been granted 36 US utility patents between 2015 and 2021, placing FREE Stream Media Corp. at rank #8,797 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 8 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 30.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a US Corporation, FREE Stream Media Corp. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, FREE sits between Emissive Energy Corp. (36 patents, rank #8,793) and Franke Technology And Trademark Ltd. (36 patents, rank #8,801) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 37.5/100 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 12 grants, compared with 24 in the 2015–2019 window, a -50% 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. FREE Stream Media Corp.'s 30.6 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while concentration in 8 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark FREE Stream Media Corp. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
FREE's 36 grants land it in the top 43% 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.
