What this shows Gan's Innovation Score is 49.7/100 (top 14% 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 Gan?

Each dot is one of Gan’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). Gan’s own 18.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Gan's grants concentrate

GaN Systems Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 64.6% of grants classified under H10D (Inorganic Electric Semiconductor Devices). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (10 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2016. By volume, Gan sits between Ghsp, Inc. and Industrial Cooperation Foundation Chonbuk National University.

Gan's three-year grant acceleration

GaN Systems Inc. shows 22 grants in 2022–2024 against only 11 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.
