USPTO PatentsView assignee record — 150 granted patents across 37 technology areas, active 2016–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING).
The verdict
Samsara holds 150 US patents across 37 technology areas — rank #2,596 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Samsara Inc. has been granted 150 US utility patents between 2016 and 2025, placing Samsara Inc. at rank #2,596 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 37 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a US Corporation, Samsara Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 70.1/100 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 149 grants, compared with 1 in the 2015–2019 window — a +14800% 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. Samsara Inc.'s 18.7 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 37 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Samsara Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
