What this shows Garant's Innovation Score is 29.5/100 (31st 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 Garant?
Each dot is one of Garant’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). Garant’s own 1.5 claims/patent is at or below the 16.7 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Garant's grants concentrate
Garant GP is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 3.6% of grants classified under A46B (Brushes). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (9 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2015. By volume, Garant sits between Flex-n-gate Advanced Product Development, LLC and Hobart Brothers LLC.
Garant's three-year grant acceleration
Garant GP shows 16 grants in 2022–2024 against only 16 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.
