What this shows Imagine's Innovation Score is 47.9/100 (top 18% 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 Imagine?

Each dot is one of Imagine’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). Imagine’s own 11.8 claims/patent is at or below the 20.4 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Imagine's grants concentrate

Imagine Intelligent Materials Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 17 CPC subclasses with 80% of grants classified under G01L (Measuring Force, Stress, Torque, Work, Mechanical Power, Mechanical Efficiency, OR Fluid Pressure). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Imagine sits between Idealab and Immortazyme Company Ltd..

Imagine's three-year grant acceleration

Imagine Intelligent Materials Limited shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
