Company patents
Inspire Medical Systems, Inc.
INSPIRE MEDICAL SYSTEMS, INC's patent strategy reveals a strong and growing focus on core medical device technologies, with Electrotherapy / Radiation Therapy representing 58.8% of its portfolio and experiencing a significant 73.3% YoY growth in 2025, indicating an emerging focus. While Medical Diagnostics & Surgery also saw a 62.5% YoY increase in 2025, the company surprisingly maintains a small but consistent presence in Healthcare Informatics (8.8% of portfolio) despite a 50.0% decline in 2025, and has largely deprioritized Computer Security, with zero patents so far in 2026 after a 100.0% decline.
