What this shows VIA LABS, Inc. stamps GRANTS-SMALL, UPPER-Q, PHOTO-FINISH, CPC-FOCUS, INNOV-PAR, CLAIMS-RICH, TYPE-FRNCORP, VEL-SURGE, BOOK-FULL. Volume places it #8,507 of 50,000; Innovation Score 45.7/100 sits in the top 23% of the PatentsView-derived corpus. Closest grant-volume peer on this plate is Universite DE Franche-comte (±0 grants).
VIA LABS, Inc. has been granted 38 US utility patents between 2019 and 2025, placing VIA LABS, Inc. at #8,507 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 17 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a Foreign Corporation, VIA LABS, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, VIA sits between Universite DE Franche-comte (38 patents, rank #8,502) and Viega Technology Gmbh & Co. KG (38 patents, rank #8,510) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 45.7/100 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 31 grants, compared with 3 in the 2015–2019 window, a +933% 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. VIA LABS, Inc.'s 18.3 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 17 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
