USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 344 granted patents across 49 technology areas, active 2015–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: H04L (TRANSMISSION OF DIGITAL INFORMATION, e.g. TELEGRAPHIC COMMUNICATION).
The verdict
Nagravision holds 344 US patents across 49 technology areas, rank #1,234 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Nagravision SARL has been granted 344 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Nagravision SARL at rank #1,234 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 49 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in H04L (TRANSMISSION OF DIGITAL INFORMATION, e.g. TELEGRAPHIC COMMUNICATION). As a Foreign Corporation, Nagravision SARL is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Nagravision sits between Endress+hauser Flowtec Ag (345 patents, rank #1,230) and Sonoco Development, Inc. (344 patents, rank #1,238) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 66.3/100 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 201 grants, compared with 143 in the 2015–2019 window, a +41% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. The Foreign 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. Nagravision SARL's 15.8 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 49 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Nagravision SARL against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Nagravision's 344 grants land it in the top 1% 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.
