What this shows Entro's Innovation Score is 37.0/100 (top 45% 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 Entro?

Each dot is one of Entro’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). Entro’s own 19.9 claims/patent is ABOVE the 18.5 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Entro's grants concentrate

Entro Industries, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 79.2% of grants classified under B62D (Motor VEHICLES; Trailers). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Entro sits between Echosens and Edge Systems LLC.

Entro's three-year grant acceleration

Entro Industries, Inc. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 8 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.
