The verdict
Nissha holds 79 US patents across 58 technology areas, rank #4,481 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Nissha Co., Ltd. has been granted 79 US utility patents between 2017 and 2025, placing Nissha Co., Ltd. at rank #4,481 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 58 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a Foreign Corporation, Nissha Co., Ltd. is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Nissha sits between NHN Entertainment Corporation (79 patents, rank #4,477) and Ranpak Corp. (79 patents, rank #4,485) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 56.8/100 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 66 grants, compared with 13 in the 2015–2019 window, a +408% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Nissha Co., Ltd.'s 12.1 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 58 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Nissha Co., Ltd. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Nissha's 79 grants land it in the top 6% 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.
