What this shows i-pro's Innovation Score is 55.3/100 (top 7% 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 i-pro?

Each dot is one of i-pro’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). i-pro’s own 9.6 claims/patent is at or below the 17.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where i-pro's grants concentrate

i-PRO Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 21 CPC subclasses with 50% of grants classified under H04N (Pictorial Communication, e.g. Television). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (20 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, i-pro sits between ZF Wind Power Antwerpen N.V. and Allnex Belgium S.A..

i-pro's three-year grant acceleration

i-PRO Co., Ltd. shows 39 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
