What this shows ibeam's Innovation Score is 41.6/100 (top 33% 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 ibeam?

Each dot is one of ibeam’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). ibeam’s own 22.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 17.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where ibeam's grants concentrate

iBeam Materials, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 CPC subclasses with 87.5% of grants classified under H01L (Semiconductor Devices NOT Covered BY Class H10). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, ibeam sits between enVVeno Medical Corporation and kickball concepts llc.

ibeam's three-year grant acceleration

iBeam Materials, Inc. shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
