Portfolio overview

Nucelis Llc has been granted 6 US utility patents between 2017 and 2024, placing Nucelis Llc at rank #41,920 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 12 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 9.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in C12P (FERMENTATION OR ENZYME-USING PROCESSES TO SYNTHESISE A DESIRED CHEMICAL COMPOUND OR COMPOSITION OR TO SEPARATE OPTICAL ISOMERS FROM A RACEMIC MIXTURE). As a US Corporation, Nucelis Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Nucelis sits between NSL COMM Ltd (6 patents, rank #41,916) and Nutrition Sciences N.v. (6 patents, rank #41,924) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 27.8/100 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 2 grants, compared with 4 in the 2015–2019 window, a -50% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Nucelis Llc's 9.2 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 12 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Nucelis Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio

Nucelis's 6 grants land it in the top 75% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.

  • Read that count against the largest US assignees before treating it as dominance - Nucelis ranks #41,920 of 50,000. Top 50 holders
  • Most of this portfolio concentrates in C12P - see who else leads that technology area. C12P leaders
  • Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

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.
