What this shows Fram's Innovation Score is 33.5/100 (45th 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 Fram?

Each dot is one of Fram’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). Fram’s own 11.9 claims/patent is ABOVE the 7.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Fram's grants concentrate

Fram Group IP, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 14 CPC subclasses with 46.4% of grants classified under H01T (Spark GAPS; Overvoltage Arresters Using Spark GAPS; Sparking PLUGS; Corona DEVICES; Generating Ions TO BE Introduced Into Non-enclosed Gases). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Fram sits between Establishment Labs S.A. and FireFly Automatix, Inc..

Fram's three-year grant acceleration

Fram Group IP, LLC shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 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.
