The verdict
KNOW holds 11 US patents across 8 technology areas, rank #24,631 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
KNOW Systems Corp has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2021 and 2025, placing KNOW Systems Corp at rank #24,631 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 8 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a US Corporation, KNOW Systems Corp is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, KNOW sits between Kitamura Machinery Co., Ltd. (11 patents, rank #24,627) and Kongju National University Industry-university Cooperation Foundation (11 patents, rank #24,635) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 49.7/100 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. Historical data spans 2021 through 2025, with 11 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. 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. KNOW Systems Corp's 18.6 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 KNOW Systems Corp against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
KNOW's 11 grants land it in the top 14% 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.
