Portfolio overview
Guided Ultrasonics Ltd has been granted 7 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Guided Ultrasonics Ltd at rank #35,594 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 5 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 19.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in G01N (INVESTIGATING OR ANALYSING MATERIALS BY DETERMINING THEIR CHEMICAL OR PHYSICAL PROPERTIES). As a Foreign Corporation, Guided Ultrasonics Ltd is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Guided sits between Guardknox Cyber Technologies Ltd. (7 patents, rank #35,590) and H & S Manufacturing Co., Inc. (7 patents, rank #35,598) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 46.8/100 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 5 grants, compared with 2 in the 2015–2019 window, a +150% 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. Guided Ultrasonics Ltd's 19.6 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 5 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Guided Ultrasonics Ltd against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
