iRobot Corporation

iRobot Corporation has been granted 582 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing iRobot Corporation at rank #790 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 80 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 20.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in G05D (SYSTEMS FOR CONTROLLING OR REGULATING NON-ELECTRIC VARIABLES). As a US Corporation, iRobot Corporation is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 65.9/100 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 280 grants, compared with 302 in the 2015–2019 window — a -7% 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. iRobot Corporation's 20.0 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while a multi-domain presence across 80 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark iRobot Corporation against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
