Portfolio overview

Lightmatter, Inc. has been granted 69 US utility patents between 2020 and 2025, placing Lightmatter, Inc. at rank #5,024 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 24 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 19.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06N (COMPUTING ARRANGEMENTS BASED ON SPECIFIC COMPUTATIONAL MODELS). As a US Corporation, Lightmatter, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 63.9/100 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 2020 through 2025, with 69 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. Lightmatter, Inc.'s 19.8 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 24 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Lightmatter, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
