Portfolio overview

Home Depot Product Authority, Llc has been granted 253 US utility patents between 2016 and 2025, placing Home Depot Product Authority, Llc at rank #1,628 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 38 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 8.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a US Corporation, Home Depot Product Authority, Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Home sits between Shin-etsu Handotai Co., Ltd. (254 patents, rank #1,624) and Aurora Operations, Inc. (252 patents, rank #1,632) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 50.7/100 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 106 grants, compared with 147 in the 2015–2019 window, a -28% 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. Home Depot Product Authority, Llc's 8.0 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 38 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Home Depot Product Authority, Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
