1 case as defendant.
Auto Telematics Ltd. is a UK-registered entity (Company Number 12441560) identified primarily as a patent owner within the telematics industry. While general company details like founding year or specific employee/revenue figures for this precise entity are not widely publicized, it holds intellectual property related to automotive technology. There is also a distinct entity, Auto Telematics Pvt. Ltd., based in Karachi, Pakistan, founded in 2020, which provides GPS tracking devices and fleet management solutions. However, the litigating entity's specific operational footprint beyond patent ownership remains limited in public records.
The company's core technological focus, as reflected in its patent portfolio, includes a mobile phone application designed for logging driving data within a vehicle without relying on the vehicle's own sensors. This technology can be used for purposes such as determining the cause of traffic accidents and monitoring driving behavior. Detailed product lines or commercial services offered by the UK-registered Auto Telematics Ltd. linked directly to the litigated patents are not extensively detailed in public sources.
In terms of patent litigation, Auto Telematics Ltd. functions as a patent owner defending its intellectual property. The company is listed as a defendant in one tracked case at the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB). In this context, being a "defendant" at the PTAB signifies that its patent is being challenged for validity, rather than the company being accused of infringement. This posture indicates an entity actively maintaining and defending its patent rights.
A notable case involves United Services Automobile Association (USAA) as the petitioner against Auto Telematics Ltd. in a Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) proceeding. The PTAB case IPR2025-00812 challenged Auto Telematics Ltd.'s U.S. Patent No. 12,236,728 B2 and was terminated due to a settlement in May 2026. An earlier IPR (IPR2023-00519) also filed by USAA challenging Auto Telematics's U.S. Patent No. 9,633,487, which relates to a mobile phone application for logging driving data, was denied institution by the PTAB in September 2023.
An Inter Partes Review (IPR) was filed by United Services Automobile Association against Auto Telematics Ltd. before the PTAB concerning patent 12236728. The case resulted in a settlement.
