What this shows Bren-tronics's Innovation Score is 36.5/100 (top 46% 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 Bren-tronics?

Each dot is one of Bren-tronics’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). Bren-tronics’s own 16.0 claims/patent is at or below the 16.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Bren-tronics's grants concentrate

Bren-Tronics, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 50% of grants classified under H02J (Circuit Arrangements OR Systems FOR Supplying OR Distributing Electric POWER; Systems FOR Storing Electric Energy). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Bren-tronics sits between Boost Treadmills, LLC and Calzaturificio S.C.A.R.P.A. S.P.A..

Bren-tronics's three-year grant acceleration

Bren-Tronics, Inc. shows 4 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.
