What this shows Airgraft's Innovation Score is 35.5/100 (top 49% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Airgraft?

Each dot is one of Airgraft’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Airgraft’s own 12.5 claims/patent is at or below the 17.2 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Airgraft's grants concentrate

Airgraft Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 53.8% of grants classified under A24F (Smokers' REQUISITES; Match BOXES; Simulated Smoking Devices). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Airgraft sits between Advanced Composite Structures, LLC and Alps South Europe, S.R.O..

Airgraft's three-year grant acceleration

Airgraft Inc. shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
