What this shows Akhan's Innovation Score is 41.4/100 (top 33% 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 Akhan?

Each dot is one of Akhan’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). Akhan’s own 9.7 claims/patent is at or below the 12.9 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Akhan's grants concentrate

Akhan Semiconductor, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 16 CPC subclasses with 47.8% of grants classified under H10D (Inorganic Electric Semiconductor Devices). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Akhan sits between Aerpio Therapeutics, Inc. and Apex Medical Corp..

Akhan's three-year grant acceleration

Akhan Semiconductor, Inc. shows 11 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 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.
