Company patents

Coupa Software Incorporated

Coupa Software Incorporated's patent strategy is heavily concentrated in Business Methods & Fintech, accounting for 73.8% of its total portfolio, which is expected given its core business. However, it's surprising to see a significant decline in patenting across nearly all categories in 2025 and so far in 2026, including a -19.2% YoY drop in Business Methods & Fintech in 2025 and a sharp -92.3% YoY decline in Databases & Information Retrieval in 2026, suggesting a potential shift in its innovation focus or a slowdown in patenting activity.
