As a US Corporation, Sam Carbis Asset Management, Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Sam sits between Swedish Orphan Biovitrum Ag (21 patents, rank #14,274) and Seachrome Corporation (21 patents, rank #14,282) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 41.7/100 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 3 grants, compared with 18 in the 2015–2019 window, a -83% 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. Sam Carbis Asset Management, Llc's 16.9 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 16 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Sam Carbis Asset Management, Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
