What this shows Cabela's's Innovation Score is 32.8/100 (42nd percentile 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 Cabela's?

Each dot is one of Cabela's’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). Cabela's’s own 7.7 claims/patent is at or below the 16.0 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Cabela's's grants concentrate

Cabela's LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 17 CPC subclasses with 14.7% of grants classified under A41D (OUTERWEAR; Protective GARMENTS; Accessories). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Cabela's sits between Chongqing Institute OF East China Normal University and Canrig Robotic Technologies AS.

Cabela's's three-year grant acceleration

Cabela's LLC shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 16 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.
