Portfolio overview

Horizon Hobby, Llc has been granted 58 US utility patents between 2015 and 2024, placing Horizon Hobby, Llc at rank #5,845 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 25 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 7.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in A63H (TOYS, e.g. TOPS, DOLLS, HOOPS OR BUILDING BLOCKS). As a US Corporation, Horizon Hobby, Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Horizon sits between Giant Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (58 patents, rank #5,841) and Jd.com American Technologies Corporation (58 patents, rank #5,849) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 36.8/100 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 17 grants, compared with 41 in the 2015–2019 window, a -59% 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. Horizon Hobby, Llc's 7.3 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 25 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Horizon Hobby, Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
