What this shows Flowcardia's Innovation Score is 32.2/100 (40th 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 Flowcardia?

Each dot is one of Flowcardia’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). Flowcardia’s own 15.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Flowcardia's grants concentrate

FlowCardia, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Flowcardia sits between Fuji Kiko Co., Ltd. and FullStory, Inc..

Flowcardia's three-year grant acceleration

FlowCardia, Inc. shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 10 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.
