What this shows Facet's Innovation Score is 33.2/100 (44th 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 Facet?

Each dot is one of Facet’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). Facet’s own 15.3 claims/patent is at or below the 15.5 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Facet's grants concentrate

Facet Technologies, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 92.3% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Facet sits between Estimote Polska Sp z o.o. and Fender Musical Instruments Corporation.

Facet's three-year grant acceleration

Facet Technologies, LLC shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 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.
