What this shows Georgia-pacific's Innovation Score is 48.9/100 (top 16% 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 Georgia-pacific?

Each dot is one of Georgia-pacific’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). Georgia-pacific’s own 18.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.6 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Georgia-pacific's grants concentrate

Georgia-Pacific Gypsum LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 32 CPC subclasses with 73.5% of grants classified under E04C (Structural ELEMENTS; Building Materials). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (11 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2024. By volume, Georgia-pacific sits between Grenzebach Maschinenbau GMBH and Hangzhou Hpwinner Opto Corporation.

Georgia-pacific's three-year grant acceleration

Georgia-Pacific Gypsum LLC shows 11 grants in 2022–2024 against only 18 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.
