The verdict
Wago holds 226 US patents across 33 technology areas, rank #1,806 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Wago Verwaltungsgesellschaft MBH has been granted 226 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Wago Verwaltungsgesellschaft MBH at rank #1,806 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 33 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in H01R (ELECTRICALLY-CONDUCTIVE CONNECTIONS; STRUCTURAL ASSOCIATIONS OF A PLURALITY OF MUTUALLY-INSULATED ELECTRICAL CONNECTING ELEMENTS; COUPLING DEVICES; CURRENT COLLECTORS). As a Foreign Corporation, Wago Verwaltungsgesellschaft MBH is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Wago sits between Atlas Copco Airpower, Naamloze Vennootschap (226 patents, rank #1,802) and Thales DIS France SAS (225 patents, rank #1,810) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 56.5/100 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 145 grants, compared with 81 in the 2015–2019 window, a +79% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The Foreign 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. Wago Verwaltungsgesellschaft MBH's 12.1 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 33 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Wago Verwaltungsgesellschaft MBH against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Wago's 226 grants land it in the top 6% 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.
