Portfolio overview

Tivo Corporation has been granted 194 US utility patents between 2015 and 2024, placing Tivo Corporation at rank #2,050 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 18 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 23.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in H04N (PICTORIAL COMMUNICATION, e.g. TELEVISION). As a US Corporation, Tivo Corporation is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Tivo sits between Proofpoint, Inc. (194 patents, rank #2,046) and Hiwin Technologies Corp. (193 patents, rank #2,054) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 67.2/100 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 105 grants, compared with 89 in the 2015–2019 window, a +18% 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. Tivo Corporation's 23.3 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while concentration in 18 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Tivo Corporation against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio

Tivo's 194 grants land it in the top 1% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.

  • Read that count against the largest US assignees before treating it as dominance - Tivo ranks #2,050 of 50,000. Top 50 holders
  • Most of this portfolio concentrates in H04N - see who else leads that technology area. H04N leaders
  • Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

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.
