What this shows Bitkey's Innovation Score is 46.0/100 (top 22% 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 Bitkey's grants concentrate

Bitkey Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 83.3% of grants classified under G06F (Electric Digital Data Processing). By volume, Bitkey sits between Biospan Technologies, Inc. and BK Technologies, Inc..

Bitkey's three-year grant acceleration

Bitkey Inc. shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
