Portfolio overview

Ignis Innovation Inc. has been granted 267 US utility patents between 2015 and 2024, placing Ignis Innovation Inc. at rank #1,554 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 18 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in G09G (ARRANGEMENTS OR CIRCUITS FOR CONTROL OF INDICATING DEVICES USING STATIC MEANS TO PRESENT VARIABLE INFORMATION). As a Foreign Corporation, Ignis Innovation Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Ignis sits between Azbil Corporation (267 patents, rank #1,550) and Eisai R&D Management Co., Ltd. (266 patents, rank #1,558) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 45.6/100 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 97 grants, compared with 170 in the 2015–2019 window, a -43% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Ignis Innovation Inc.'s 15.2 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 18 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Ignis Innovation Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio

Ignis's 267 grants land it in the top 23% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.

  • Read that count against the largest US assignees before treating it as dominance - Ignis ranks #1,554 of 50,000. Top 50 holders
  • Most of this portfolio concentrates in G09G - see who else leads that technology area. G09G leaders
  • Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

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.
