About this data
What it is
The US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) grants new patents every Tuesday. We match the companies named as owners to public companies.
Who files it
The USPTO publishes each grant.
How current
Grants are published every Tuesday, and we collect them weekly.
Worth knowing
A patent count says little about how valuable the patents are. We match owners to companies automatically, so a few may be missed.

All of this comes from public filings.
