Portfolio overview

Heartflow, Inc. has been granted 285 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Heartflow, Inc. at rank #1,458 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 19 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 19.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in G16H (HEALTHCARE INFORMATICS, i.e. INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY [ICT] SPECIALLY ADAPTED FOR THE HANDLING OR PROCESSING OF MEDICAL OR HEALTHCARE DATA). As a US Corporation, Heartflow, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Heartflow sits between Tyco Fire Products Lp (287 patents, rank #1,454) and L&P Property Management Company (284 patents, rank #1,462) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 52.7/100 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. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 147 grants, compared with 138 in the 2015–2019 window, a +7% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. 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. Heartflow, Inc.'s 19.9 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 19 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Heartflow, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

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.
