What this shows Cobalt's Innovation Score is 35.4/100 (top 49% 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 Cobalt's grants concentrate

Cobalt Industries Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 13 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under G05D (Systems FOR Controlling OR Regulating Non-electric Variables). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Cobalt sits between CoAlign Innovations, Inc. and Codefine International SA.

Cobalt's three-year grant acceleration

Cobalt Industries Inc. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
