What this shows Heat's Innovation Score is 30.9/100 (36th 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 Heat?

Each dot is one of Heat’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). Heat’s own 20.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Heat's grants concentrate

Heat Biologics, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under A61P (Specific Therapeutic Activity OF Chemical Compounds OR Medicinal Preparations). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (7 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2018. By volume, Heat sits between Hangzhou Hikvision System Technology Co., Ltd. and Henschel-Steinau, Inc..

Heat's three-year grant acceleration

Heat Biologics, Inc. shows 2 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.
