Across all tracked assignees
USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 10 granted patents across 4 technology areas, active 2016–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: E02D (FOUNDATIONS; EXCAVATIONS; EMBANKMENTS ; UNDERGROUND OR UNDERWATER STRUCTURES).
The verdict
Pier holds 10 US patents across 4 technology areas, rank #27,153 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Pier Tech Systems, Llc has been granted 10 US utility patents between 2016 and 2025, placing Pier Tech Systems, Llc at rank #27,153 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 4 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 32.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in E02D (FOUNDATIONS; EXCAVATIONS; EMBANKMENTS ; UNDERGROUND OR UNDERWATER STRUCTURES). As a US Corporation, Pier Tech Systems, Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Pier sits between Phaeton Manufacturing Llc (10 patents, rank #27,149) and Plants Nouveau (10 patents, rank #27,157) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 30.4/100 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 7 grants, compared with 3 in the 2015–2019 window, a +133% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Pier Tech Systems, Llc's 32.4 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while specialization in 4 subclasses reflects a tightly scoped invention area. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Pier Tech Systems, Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Pier's 10 grants land it in the top 66% 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.
