Portfolio overview

Stephen P. Shoemaker Trust has been granted 13 US utility patents between 2021 and 2025, placing Stephen P. Shoemaker Trust at rank #21,845 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 13 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 3.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in G07F (COIN-FREED OR LIKE APPARATUS). As a US Corporation, Stephen P. Shoemaker Trust is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 44.1/100 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 2021 through 2025, with 13 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. 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. Stephen P. Shoemaker Trust's 3.7 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 13 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Stephen P. Shoemaker Trust against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
