USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 310 granted patents across 56 technology areas, active 2015–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: A45C (PURSES; LUGGAGE; HAND CARRIED BAGS).
The verdict
Otter holds 310 US patents across 56 technology areas, rank #1,355 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Otter Products, Llc has been granted 310 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Otter Products, Llc at rank #1,355 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 56 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in A45C (PURSES; LUGGAGE; HAND CARRIED BAGS). As a US Corporation, Otter Products, Llc is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Otter sits between Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Compressor Corporation (311 patents, rank #1,351) and Gwangju Institute OF Science AND Technology (309 patents, rank #1,359) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 54.7/100 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 68 grants, compared with 242 in the 2015–2019 window, a -72% 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. Otter Products, Llc's 12.2 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 56 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Otter Products, Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Otter's 310 grants land it in the top 7% 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.
