Portfolio overview
PETSMART HOME OFFICE, INC. has been granted 125 US utility patents between 2017 and 2025, placing PETSMART HOME OFFICE, INC. at rank #3,045 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 12 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 3.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in A01K (ANIMAL HUSBANDRY; AVICULTURE; APICULTURE; PISCICULTURE; FISHING; REARING OR BREEDING ANIMALS, NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR; NEW BREEDS OF ANIMALS). As a US Corporation, PETSMART HOME OFFICE, INC. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 31.3/100 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 50 grants, compared with 75 in the 2015–2019 window — a -33% 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. PETSMART HOME OFFICE, INC.'s 3.0 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 PETSMART HOME OFFICE, INC. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
