The verdict
Treadstone holds 10 US patents across 11 technology areas, rank #27,602 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Treadstone Technologies, Inc. has been granted 10 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Treadstone Technologies, Inc. at rank #27,602 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 11 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 17.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in C23C (COATING METALLIC MATERIAL; COATING MATERIAL WITH METALLIC MATERIAL; SURFACE TREATMENT OF METALLIC MATERIAL BY DIFFUSION INTO THE SURFACE, BY CHEMICAL CONVERSION OR SUBSTITUTION; COATING BY VACUUM EVAP). As a US Corporation, Treadstone Technologies, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Treadstone sits between TPK Universal Solutions Limited (10 patents, rank #27,598) and Trianni, Inc. (10 patents, rank #27,606) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 34.8/100 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 5 grants, compared with 5 in the 2015–2019 window, a +0% 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. Treadstone Technologies, Inc.'s 17.3 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 11 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Treadstone Technologies, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Treadstone's 10 grants land it in the top 51% 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.
