What this shows Echo's Innovation Score is 41.9/100 (top 32% 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 Echo?

Each dot is one of Echo’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). Echo’s own 18.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.7 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Echo's grants concentrate

Echo Incorporated is a focused PatentsView assignee: 20 CPC subclasses with 42.3% of grants classified under A01D (HARVESTING; Mowing). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Echo sits between Elementis Specialties, Inc. and EnergyHub, Inc..

Echo's three-year grant acceleration

Echo Incorporated shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 11 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.
