What this shows Connectfree's Innovation Score is 48.0/100 (top 17% 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 Connectfree?

Each dot is one of Connectfree’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). Connectfree’s own 15.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 10.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Connectfree's grants concentrate

Connectfree Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 73.3% of grants classified under H04L (Transmission OF Digital Information, e.g. Telegraphic Communication). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Connectfree sits between Cibo Technologies, Inc. and CZ Biohub SF, LLC.

Connectfree's three-year grant acceleration

Connectfree Corporation shows 7 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
