The verdict
Korloy holds 51 US patents across 10 technology areas, rank #6,550 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Korloy Inc. has been granted 51 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Korloy Inc. at rank #6,550 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 10 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 8.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in B23C (MILLING). As a Foreign Corporation, Korloy Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Korloy sits between Itron Networked Solutions, Inc. (51 patents, rank #6,546) and LWRC International Llc (51 patents, rank #6,554) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 31.6/100 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 18 grants, compared with 33 in the 2015–2019 window, a -45% 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. Korloy Inc.'s 8.0 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 10 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Korloy Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Korloy's 51 grants land it in the top 62% 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.
