The verdict
iposi holds 18 US patents across 8 technology areas, rank #16,534 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Iposi, Inc. has been granted 18 US utility patents between 2016 and 2022, placing Iposi, Inc. at rank #16,534 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 8 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 16.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in G01S (RADIO DIRECTION-FINDING; RADIO NAVIGATION; DETERMINING DISTANCE OR VELOCITY BY USE OF RADIO WAVES; LOCATING OR PRESENCE-DETECTING BY USE OF THE REFLECTION OR RERADIATION OF RADIO WAVES; ANALOGOUS ARRA). As a US Corporation, Iposi, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, iposi sits between Zhejiang University City College (18 patents, rank #16,530) and 3B Medical, Inc. (17 patents, rank #16,538) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 31.9/100 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 4 grants, compared with 14 in the 2015–2019 window, a -71% 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. Iposi, Inc.'s 16.8 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 8 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Iposi, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
iposi's 18 grants land it in the top 61% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
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.
