Portfolio overview

Pindrop Security, Inc. has been granted 85 US utility patents between 2017 and 2025, placing Pindrop Security, Inc. at rank #4,216 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 9 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 20.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in H04M (TELEPHONIC COMMUNICATION). As a US Corporation, Pindrop Security, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Pindrop sits between O&M Halyard, Inc. (85 patents, rank #4,212) and Savant Technologies Llc (85 patents, rank #4,220) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 46.8/100 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 71 grants, compared with 14 in the 2015–2019 window, a +407% 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. Pindrop Security, Inc.'s 20.0 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 9 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Pindrop Security, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
