What this shows Broadley-james's Innovation Score is 47.1/100 (top 19% 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 Broadley-james?

Each dot is one of Broadley-james’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). Broadley-james’s own 19.5 claims/patent is ABOVE the 17.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Broadley-james's grants concentrate

Broadley-James Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 13 CPC subclasses with 35.7% of grants classified under G01N (Investigating OR Analysing Materials BY Determining Their Chemical OR Physical Properties). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Broadley-james sits between Boss Design Limited and Bullhead Innovations Ltd..

Broadley-james's three-year grant acceleration

Broadley-James Corporation shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
