What this shows Confinement's Innovation Score is 42.2/100 (top 31% 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 Confinement?

Each dot is one of Confinement’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). Confinement’s own 14.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.9 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Confinement's grants concentrate

Confinement Telephony Technology, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 51.4% of grants classified under H04M (Telephonic Communication). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Confinement sits between CALOR and Ceramatec, Inc..

Confinement's three-year grant acceleration

Confinement Telephony Technology, LLC shows 12 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 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.
