The verdict
MCP holds 193 US patents across 21 technology areas, rank #2,055 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
MCP IP, Llc has been granted 193 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing MCP IP, Llc at rank #2,055 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 21 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 14.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in F41B (WEAPONS FOR PROJECTING MISSILES WITHOUT USE OF EXPLOSIVE OR COMBUSTIBLE PROPELLANT CHARGE; WEAPONS NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR). As a US Corporation, MCP IP, Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, MCP sits between Trimble Navigation Limited (194 patents, rank #2,051) and The Governors Of The University Of Alberta (193 patents, rank #2,059) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 48.5/100 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 97 grants, compared with 96 in the 2015–2019 window, a +1% 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. MCP IP, Llc's 14.9 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 21 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark MCP IP, Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
MCP's 193 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.
