What this shows International's Innovation Score is 41.1/100 (top 34% 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 International?

Each dot is one of International’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). International’s own 19.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 17.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where International's grants concentrate

International Automotive Components Group North America, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 23 CPC subclasses with 35.7% of grants classified under B29L (Indexing Scheme Associated With Subclass B29c, Relating TO Particular Articles). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, International sits between Intelligent Medical Objects, Inc. and Inxpect S.p.A..

International's three-year grant acceleration

International Automotive Components Group North America, Inc. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
