What this shows Aurora's Innovation Score is 73.6/100 (top 1% 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 Aurora's grants concentrate

Aurora Operations, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 44 CPC subclasses with 52.4% of grants classified under G01S (Radio DIRECTION-FINDING; Radio NAVIGATION; Determining Distance OR Velocity BY USE OF Radio WAVES; Locating OR Presence-detecting BY USE OF THE Reflection OR Reradiation OF Radio WAVES; Analogous Arra). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (91 grants) versus a trough of 7 in 2021. By volume, Aurora sits between Home Depot Product Authority, LLC and Verint Systems Inc..

Aurora's three-year grant acceleration

Aurora Operations, Inc. shows 142 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.
