Overall rank by patents
#5,332
of 50,000 tracked assignees
USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 65 granted patents across 34 technology areas, recorded in grant years 2017–2024. Grant-trend analysis is cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search; it does not measure application filings, current R&D, or legal strength. Primary class: G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING).
The verdict
According to USPTO PatentsView, Toshiba ranks #5,332 of 50,000 tracked US assignees by granted-patent volume, with 65 patents across 34 technology areas.
Toshiba Client Solutions Co., Ltd. has been granted 65 US utility patents between 2017 and 2024, placing Toshiba Client Solutions Co., Ltd. at #5,332 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 34 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 10.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a Foreign Corporation, Toshiba Client Solutions Co., Ltd. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Toshiba sits between Swarovski-optik Ag & Co KG. (65 patents, rank #5,326) and University College Cardiff Consultants Limited (65 patents, rank #5,334) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 41.7/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Between 2020 and 2024 the company received 39 grants, compared with 26 in the 2015–2019 window, a +50% shift in five-year grant velocity. Both windows cover five complete grant years; the latest PatentsView year is a partial release and is excluded from this comparison, though it still appears in the yearly table and chart below. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The Foreign Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.
Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Toshiba Client Solutions Co., Ltd.'s 10.4 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 34 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Toshiba's 65 grants land it in the top 32% 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.
