The verdict
POET holds 106 US patents across 68 technology areas, rank #3,481 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
POET Research, Inc. has been granted 106 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing POET Research, Inc. at rank #3,481 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 68 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in Y02E (REDUCTION OF GREENHOUSE GAS [GHG] EMISSIONS, RELATED TO ENERGY GENERATION, TRANSMISSION OR DISTRIBUTION). As a US Corporation, POET Research, Inc. is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, POET sits between Fujifilm Electronic Materials U.s.a., Inc. (106 patents, rank #3,477) and Technische Universität Berlin (106 patents, rank #3,485) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 60.2/100 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 67 grants, compared with 39 in the 2015–2019 window, a +72% 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. POET Research, Inc.'s 18.9 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 68 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark POET Research, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
POET's 106 grants land it in the top 3% 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.
