Across all tracked assignees
USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 40 granted patents across 14 technology areas, active 2015–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: G01H (MEASUREMENT OF MECHANICAL VIBRATIONS OR ULTRASONIC, SONIC OR INFRASONIC WAVES).
The verdict
Silixa holds 40 US patents across 14 technology areas, rank #8,112 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Silixa Ltd. has been granted 40 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Silixa Ltd. at rank #8,112 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 14 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in G01H (MEASUREMENT OF MECHANICAL VIBRATIONS OR ULTRASONIC, SONIC OR INFRASONIC WAVES). As a Foreign Corporation, Silixa Ltd. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Silixa sits between Spyderco, Inc. (40 patents, rank #8,108) and Somos, Inc. (40 patents, rank #8,116) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 36.0/100 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 17 grants, compared with 23 in the 2015–2019 window, a -26% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Silixa Ltd.'s 12.9 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 14 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Silixa Ltd. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Silixa's 40 grants land it in the top 47% 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.
