What this shows GHP's Innovation Score is 22.9/100 (11th 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 GHP?

Each dot is one of GHP’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). GHP’s own 8.8 claims/patent is at or below the 14.2 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where GHP's grants concentrate

GHP Group, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 50% of grants classified under F23N (Regulating OR Controlling Combustion). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, GHP sits between Gewa music GmbH and Gigacloud TECHNOLOGY(USA) Inc..

GHP's three-year grant acceleration

GHP Group, Inc. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
