The verdict
Mayo holds 1,020 US patents across 109 technology areas, rank #448 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Mayo Foundation For Medical Education And Research has been granted 1,020 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Mayo Foundation For Medical Education And Research at rank #448 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 109 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 14.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61K (PREPARATIONS FOR MEDICAL, DENTAL OR TOILETRY PURPOSES). As a US Corporation, Mayo Foundation For Medical Education And Research is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Mayo sits between DEKA Products Limited Parternship (1,025 patents, rank #444) and National Technology & Engineering Solutions Of Sandia, Llc (1,004 patents, rank #452) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 63.8/100 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 594 grants, compared with 426 in the 2015–2019 window, a +39% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. 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. Mayo Foundation For Medical Education And Research's 14.2 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a diversified footprint across 100+ CPC subclasses spreads risk across many technology fronts. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Mayo Foundation For Medical Education And Research against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Mayo's 1,020 grants land it in the top 2% 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.
