What this shows Discovery's Innovation Score is 34.8/100 (49th 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 Discovery?

Each dot is one of Discovery’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). Discovery’s own 18.0 claims/patent is at or below the 19.2 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Discovery's grants concentrate

Discovery Sound Technology, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 66.7% of grants classified under G06F (Electric Digital Data Processing). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Discovery sits between Diomics Corporation and Diversified Technologies, Inc..

Discovery's three-year grant acceleration

Discovery Sound Technology, LLC shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
