What this shows FP's Innovation Score is 37.9/100 (top 42% 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 FP?

Each dot is one of FP’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). FP’s own 11.2 claims/patent is at or below the 13.6 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where FP's grants concentrate

FP Business Invest is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under F16G (Belts, Cables, OR Ropes, Predominantly Used FOR Driving PURPOSES; CHAINS; Fittings Predominantly Used Therefor). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (3 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2024. By volume, FP sits between Foundrydc, LLC and Frama AG.

FP's three-year grant acceleration

FP Business Invest shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
