Company patents
Argo AI, LLC
Argo AI, LLC's patent strategy shows a surprising and dramatic shift, with nearly all categories experiencing significant declines in patent filings from 2023 to 2024, and a complete cessation of filings in 2025 across all listed categories, including its core Vehicle Control Systems (51.2% of portfolio) which saw a -100.0% YoY decline in 2025. This indicates a profound change in the company's R&D and IP strategy, moving away from active patenting in its previously dominant autonomous vehicle technologies.
