What this shows Imagine's Innovation Score is 39.0/100 (top 39% 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 14.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.5 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Imagine's grants concentrate

Imagine Optic is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 87.5% of grants classified under G02B (Optical Elements, Systems OR Apparatus). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Imagine sits between Igor, Inc. and Immunicum AB.

Imagine's three-year grant acceleration

Imagine Optic shows 2 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.
