USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 10 granted patents across 17 technology areas, active 2016–2022. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: Y02T (CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION TECHNOLOGIES RELATED TO TRANSPORTATION).
The verdict
Wrightspeed holds 10 US patents across 17 technology areas, rank #27,829 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Wrightspeed, Inc. has been granted 10 US utility patents between 2016 and 2022, placing Wrightspeed, Inc. at rank #27,829 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 17 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 20.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in Y02T (CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION TECHNOLOGIES RELATED TO TRANSPORTATION). As a US Corporation, Wrightspeed, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Wrightspeed sits between Wood Industries Inc. (10 patents, rank #27,825) and XG Sciences, Inc. (10 patents, rank #27,833) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 36.1/100 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. Wrightspeed, Inc.'s 20.2 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while concentration in 17 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Wrightspeed, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Wrightspeed's 10 grants land it in the top 47% 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.
