What this shows Scale Computing stamps GRANTS-MICRO, MID-PACK, PHOTO-FINISH, CPC-NARROW, INNOV-THIN, CLAIMS-RICH, TYPE-USCORP, VEL-DROP, BOOK-FULL. Volume places it #15,591 of 50,000; Innovation Score 25.1/100 sits in the top 84% of the PatentsView-derived corpus. Closest grant-volume peer on this plate is Salford Group Inc. (±0 grants).
Scale Computing has been granted 19 US utility patents between 2015 and 2021, placing Scale Computing at #15,591 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 2 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 16.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a US Corporation, Scale Computing is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Scale sits between Synthos S.a. (19 patents, rank #15,625) and Select Comfort Corporation (19 patents, rank #15,633) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 25.1/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Between 2020 and 2024 the company received 3 grants, compared with 16 in the 2015–2019 window, a -81% shift in five-year grant velocity. Both windows cover five complete grant years; the latest PatentsView year is a partial release and is excluded from this comparison, though it still appears in the yearly table and chart below. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The US Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.
Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Scale Computing's 16.2 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 2 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
