Nobots LLC

Nobots LLC is a privately held entity primarily engaged in patent assertion. Its headquarters and founding year are not publicly disclosed. Information regarding its employee count or revenue is not available, which is common for non-practicing entities (NPEs).

Nobots LLC does not appear to offer commercial products or services. Instead, it holds and asserts patent portfolios. A key patent owned by Nobots LLC is U.S. Patent No. 9,595,008, which covers "systems, methods, and apparatus for evaluating the status of computing device users." This technology relates to bot detection, user authentication, and behavioral analysis on digital platforms.

The company's patent litigation posture indicates it operates as a patent assertion entity. Nobots LLC has initiated at least one patent infringement lawsuit as a plaintiff in the Texas Western District Court, a venue frequently chosen by patent holders. Concurrently, it has appeared as a defendant in a Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) proceeding, specifically an inter partes review (IPR) challenged by Google LLC and tracked with Unified Patents as a party. This pattern, involving both offensive assertion and defensive challenges to its patents, is characteristic of an NPE.

A notable case involving Nobots LLC is its infringement suit against Google LLC (Nobots LLC v. Google LLC) in the Texas Western District Court, filed in December 2021 and March 2024. In a related defensive action, Google challenged the validity of Nobots' US9595008B1 patent through an IPR at the PTAB. On November 20, 2025, the Federal Circuit reversed a PTAB ruling regarding the patentability of claim 19 of the '008 patent and remanded the case, representing a significant development in the ongoing dispute. The involvement of Unified Patents as a party challenging Nobots' patent reinforces its characterization as a patent assertion entity.
