What this shows American's Innovation Score is 33.4/100 (44th percentile 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 American?

Each dot is one of American’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). American’s own 18.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where American's grants concentrate

American Medical Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 20% of grants classified under A45D (Hairdressing OR Shaving Equipment ; Equipment FOR Cosmetics OR Cosmetic Treatments, e.g. FOR Manicuring OR Pedicuring). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, American sits between Alter NRG Corp. and Amphenol-air LB.

American's three-year grant acceleration

American Medical Corporation shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
