USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 11 granted patents across 12 technology areas, active 2020–2023. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: E05Y (INDEXING SCHEME ASSOCIATED WITH SUBCLASSES E05D AND E05F, RELATING TO CONSTRUCTION ELEMENTS, ELECTRIC CONTROL, POWER SUPPLY, POWER SIGNAL OR TRANSMISSION, USER INTERFACES, MOUNTING OR COUPLING, DETAIL).
The verdict
Shanghai holds 11 US patents across 12 technology areas, rank #25,131 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Shanghai Imilab Technology Co., Ltd. has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2020 and 2023, placing Shanghai Imilab Technology Co., Ltd. at rank #25,131 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 12 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 10.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in E05Y (INDEXING SCHEME ASSOCIATED WITH SUBCLASSES E05D AND E05F, RELATING TO CONSTRUCTION ELEMENTS, ELECTRIC CONTROL, POWER SUPPLY, POWER SIGNAL OR TRANSMISSION, USER INTERFACES, MOUNTING OR COUPLING, DETAIL). As a Foreign Corporation, Shanghai Imilab Technology Co., Ltd. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Shanghai sits between SFS Group International Ag (11 patents, rank #25,127) and Shell Internet (beijing) Security Technology Co., Ltd. (11 patents, rank #25,135) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 47.1/100 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. Historical data spans 2020 through 2023, with 11 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. The Foreign 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. Shanghai Imilab Technology Co., Ltd.'s 10.4 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 12 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Shanghai Imilab Technology Co., Ltd. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Shanghai's 11 grants land it in the top 19% 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.
