USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 11 granted patents across 7 technology areas, active 2023–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: G06N (COMPUTING ARRANGEMENTS BASED ON SPECIFIC COMPUTATIONAL MODELS).
The verdict
KWAI holds 11 US patents across 7 technology areas, rank #24,646 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
KWAI Inc. has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2023 and 2025, placing KWAI Inc. at rank #24,646 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 7 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06N (COMPUTING ARRANGEMENTS BASED ON SPECIFIC COMPUTATIONAL MODELS). As a US Corporation, KWAI Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, KWAI sits between KOYO Machine Industries Co., Ltd. (11 patents, rank #24,642) and Kadant Inc. (11 patents, rank #24,650) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 48.9/100 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. Historical data spans 2023 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. KWAI Inc.'s 18.3 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 7 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark KWAI Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
KWAI's 11 grants land it in the top 16% 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.
