Portfolio overview
Modular Bionics Inc. has been granted 9 US utility patents between 2015 and 2023, placing Modular Bionics Inc. at rank #29,489 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 3 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 22.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; IDENTIFICATION). As a US Corporation, Modular Bionics Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Modular sits between Mobiline, Inc. (9 patents, rank #29,485) and Mogas Industries, Inc. (9 patents, rank #29,493) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 32.3/100 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 6 grants, compared with 3 in the 2015–2019 window, a +100% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Modular Bionics Inc.'s 22.1 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while specialization in 3 subclasses reflects a tightly scoped invention area. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Modular Bionics Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
