What this shows Airhop's Innovation Score is 38.0/100 (top 42% 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 Airhop?

Each dot is one of Airhop’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). Airhop’s own 21.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Airhop's grants concentrate

AirHop Communications, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under H04W (Wireless Communication Networks). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Airhop sits between Acurx Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Altachem NV.

Airhop's three-year grant acceleration

AirHop Communications, Inc. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
