USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 29 granted patents across 28 technology areas, active 2019–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: G01N (INVESTIGATING OR ANALYSING MATERIALS BY DETERMINING THEIR CHEMICAL OR PHYSICAL PROPERTIES).
The verdict
Stratec holds 29 US patents across 28 technology areas, rank #10,753 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Stratec SE has been granted 29 US utility patents between 2019 and 2025, placing Stratec SE at rank #10,753 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 28 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 8.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in G01N (INVESTIGATING OR ANALYSING MATERIALS BY DETERMINING THEIR CHEMICAL OR PHYSICAL PROPERTIES). As a Foreign Corporation, Stratec SE is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Stratec sits between Software Ag USA, Inc. (29 patents, rank #10,749) and Supergrid Institute (29 patents, rank #10,757) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 44.0/100 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 26 grants, compared with 3 in the 2015–2019 window, a +767% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Stratec SE's 8.6 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 28 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Stratec SE against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Stratec's 29 grants land it in the top 27% 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.
