The verdict
Separation holds 8 US patents across 16 technology areas, rank #33,161 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Separation Design Group Llc has been granted 8 US utility patents between 2015 and 2024, placing Separation Design Group Llc at rank #33,161 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 16 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 17.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61M (DEVICES FOR INTRODUCING MEDIA INTO, OR ONTO, THE BODY ; DEVICES FOR TRANSDUCING BODY MEDIA OR FOR TAKING MEDIA FROM THE BODY ; DEVICES FOR PRODUCING OR ENDING SLEEP OR STUPOR). As a US Corporation, Separation Design Group Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Separation sits between Sensetime Group Limited (8 patents, rank #33,157) and SGS North America Inc. (8 patents, rank #33,165) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 38.9/100 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 4 grants, compared with 4 in the 2015–2019 window, a +0% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. 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. Separation Design Group Llc's 17.5 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 Separation Design Group Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Separation's 8 grants land it in the top 40% 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.
