How Fuel’s 36.1 Innovation Score adds up
The same four weighted components behind every Innovation Score on PlainPatent: portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth.

What this shows Fuel's Innovation Score is 36.1/100 (top 47% 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 Fuel?
Each dot is one of Fuel’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). Fuel’s own 18.3 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.7 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Fuel's grants concentrate
Fuel Injection Technology Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under F02D (Controlling Combustion Engines). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Fuel sits between FSD, LLC and Fujimoto Co., Ltd..
Fuel's three-year grant acceleration
Fuel Injection Technology Inc. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
