How Innovative’s 29.3 Innovation Score adds up
The same four weighted components behind every Innovation Score on PlainPatent: portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Innovative?
Each dot is one of Innovative’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). Innovative’s own 14.2 claims/patent is at or below the 15.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Innovative's grants concentrate
Innovative Automation Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 60% of grants classified under B65H (Handling Thin OR Filamentary Material, e.g. Sheets, Webs, Cables). By volume, Innovative sits between Innotec Lightweight Engineering & Polymer Technology GMBH and Innventia AB.
Innovative's three-year grant acceleration
Innovative Automation Inc. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
