What this shows Allen's Innovation Score is 50.1/100 (top 13% 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.

Where Allen's grants concentrate

Allen Institute is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 55.6% of grants classified under G01N (Investigating OR Analysing Materials BY Determining Their Chemical OR Physical Properties). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Allen sits between Alforex Seeds LLC and Ammann Schweiz AG.

Allen's three-year grant acceleration

Allen Institute shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
