The patent owner, Alpha Modus, Corp., has engaged in a broad patent enforcement campaign, filing numerous lawsuits against major retailers. While US patent 12,423,718 is a recent issuance (September 23, 2025), it has been cited in at least one case as part of a larger portfolio of asserted patents.
The authoritative patent text for US patent 12,423,718 explicitly notes "Family has litigation" and references a case in the Texas Eastern District Court with the number 2:25-cv-01145. SEC filings from Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc. confirm this litigation and name the defendants.
Known Litigation
1. Alpha Modus, Corp. v. Lowe's Companies, Inc. and Lowe's Home Centers, LLC
- Plaintiff: Alpha Modus, Corp.
- Defendants: Lowe's Companies, Inc. and Lowe's Home Centers, LLC
- Jurisdiction: U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas
- Case Number: 2:25-cv-01145
- Filing Date: October 14, 2025
- Status/Outcome: According to SEC filings from late 2025 and early 2026, the case is in its initial pleading stage.
- Details: The complaint asserts that Lowe's in-store systems, which use computer vision and media platforms for customer engagement and inventory management, infringe on a portfolio of Alpha Modus patents. A 10-K filing by Alpha Modus in April 2026 confirms that US patent 12,423,718 (referred to as the '718 patent) is among those asserted in a suit against another defendant, Stratacache, Inc., indicating its active role in the company's litigation strategy.
It is noteworthy that the case number 2:25-cv-01145 is also associated with unrelated cases in other jurisdictions, which is a common occurrence in the federal court system. However, the SEC filings from the plaintiff, Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc., definitively link this case number to their litigation against Lowe's in the Eastern District of Texas.
Broader Litigation Context
Alpha Modus has filed numerous other patent infringement lawsuits in the same jurisdiction against other major retailers. As of April 2026, the company had filed 24 patent enforcement actions and secured six early-stage settlements. This broader campaign involves a family of related patents covering technologies for real-time consumer behavior analysis, AI-driven personalization, and inventory management, with the Eastern District of Texas being the chosen venue for these disputes.
