What this shows Icron's Innovation Score is 37.7/100 (top 43% 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 Icron?

Each dot is one of Icron’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). Icron’s own 17.1 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 Icron's grants concentrate

Icron Technologies Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 87.5% of grants classified under G06F (Electric Digital Data Processing). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (7 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2015. By volume, Icron sits between Holland Electronics , LLC and IngenioSpec, LLC.

Icron's three-year grant acceleration

Icron Technologies Corporation shows 11 grants in 2022–2024 against only 14 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.
