What this shows Card-monroe's Innovation Score is 37.3/100 (top 44% 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 Card-monroe's grants concentrate

Card-Monroe Corp. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 98% of grants classified under D05C (EMBROIDERING; Tufting). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (8 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2022. By volume, Card-monroe sits between Built Robotics Inc. and Cotapaxi Custom Design and Manufacturing LLC.

Card-monroe's three-year grant acceleration

Card-Monroe Corp. shows 12 grants in 2022–2024 against only 19 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.
