What this shows B1's Innovation Score is 46.8/100 (top 20% 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 B1?
Each dot is one of B1’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). B1’s own 7.3 claims/patent is at or below the 16.1 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where B1's grants concentrate
B1 Institute OF Image Technology, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 99.4% of grants classified under H04N (Pictorial Communication, e.g. Television). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (46 grants) versus a trough of 5 in 2021. By volume, B1 sits between Zhejiang Sunny Optics Co., Ltd and MS Technologies.
B1's three-year grant acceleration
B1 Institute OF Image Technology, Inc. shows 101 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
