What this shows Innovation's Innovation Score is 72.4/100 (top 1% 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.

How Innovation's grant cadence moved

Between 2020–2024, Innovation, LLC received 75 grants versus 59 in 2015–2019 (+27% equal-window velocity, above median growth). Across complete PatentsView years, output peaked in 2023 at 33 grants and bottomed in 2019 at 7. Lead class G01S accounts for 30.9% of the portfolio across 83 subclasses. Volume neighbours: AUO Corporation (#2,604) and Moxtek, Inc. (#2,612).

Innovation's three-year grant acceleration

Innovation, LLC shows 66 grants in 2022–2024 against only 16 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.
