Across all tracked assignees
USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 22 granted patents across 23 technology areas, active 2021–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: B64G (COSMONAUTICS; VEHICLES OR EQUIPMENT THEREFOR).
The verdict
Trans holds 22 US patents across 23 technology areas, rank #13,747 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Trans Astronautica Corporation has been granted 22 US utility patents between 2021 and 2025, placing Trans Astronautica Corporation at rank #13,747 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 23 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 21.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in B64G (COSMONAUTICS; VEHICLES OR EQUIPMENT THEREFOR). As a US Corporation, Trans Astronautica Corporation is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Trans sits between The Yankee Candle Company, Inc. (22 patents, rank #13,743) and Tyco Electronics Canada ULC (22 patents, rank #13,751) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 60.7/100 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 22 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. Trans Astronautica Corporation's 21.4 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while a multi-domain presence across 23 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Trans Astronautica Corporation against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Trans's 22 grants land it in the top 3% 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.
