What this shows Bmic's Innovation Score is 73.5/100 (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.

How Bmic's grant cadence moved

Grant history spans 2021–2025. Across complete PatentsView years, output peaked in 2024 at 71 grants and bottomed in 2021 at 5. Lead class E04D accounts for 65.6% of the portfolio across 62 subclasses. Volume neighbours: Micro Motion, Inc. (#1,786) and Grammer AG (#1,794).

Bmic's three-year grant acceleration

Bmic LLC shows 176 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.
