USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 226 granted patents across 11 technology areas, active 2017–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING).
The verdict
Parallels holds 226 US patents across 11 technology areas, rank #1,804 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Parallels International Gmbh has been granted 226 US utility patents between 2017 and 2025, placing Parallels International Gmbh at rank #1,804 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 11 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a Foreign Corporation, Parallels International Gmbh is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Parallels sits between Sharp Display Technology Corporation (227 patents, rank #1,800) and Koki Holdings Co., Ltd. (225 patents, rank #1,808) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 46.3/100 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 187 grants, compared with 39 in the 2015–2019 window, a +379% 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. Parallels International Gmbh's 15.7 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 11 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Parallels International Gmbh against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Parallels's 226 grants land it in the top 21% 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.
