Portfolio overview

VTEC Consulting Llc has been granted 10 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing VTEC Consulting Llc at rank #27,754 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 18 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 9.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in F04F (PUMPING OF FLUID BY DIRECT CONTACT OF ANOTHER FLUID OR BY USING INERTIA OF FLUID TO BE PUMPED ; SIPHONS). As a US Corporation, VTEC Consulting Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, VTEC sits between Voestalpine VAE Gmbh (10 patents, rank #27,750) and Valeo Climate Control Corporation (10 patents, rank #27,758) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 35.5/100 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 6 grants, compared with 4 in the 2015–2019 window, a +50% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. VTEC Consulting Llc's 9.3 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 18 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark VTEC Consulting Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
