What this shows Augustine's Innovation Score is 63.2/100 (top 2% 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 Augustine?

Each dot is one of Augustine’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). Augustine’s own 27.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.0 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Augustine's grants concentrate

Augustine Biomedical + Design, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 25 CPC subclasses with 72.7% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (22 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Augustine sits between Whelen Engineering Company, Inc. and Crispr Therapeutics AG.

Augustine's three-year grant acceleration

Augustine Biomedical + Design, LLC shows 44 grants in 2022–2024 against only 19 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.
