What this shows Johnson's Innovation Score is 25.1/100 (16th percentile 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 Johnson?

Each dot is one of Johnson’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). Johnson’s own 3.5 claims/patent is at or below the 10.7 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Johnson's grants concentrate

Johnson Systems Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 15.4% of grants classified under H05B (Electric HEATING; Electric Light Sources NOT Otherwise Provided FOR; Circuit Arrangements FOR Electric Light Sources, IN General). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2024. By volume, Johnson sits between Jane Technologies, Inc. and Karl Dungs GMBH & Co. KG.

Johnson's three-year grant acceleration

Johnson Systems Inc. shows 7 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 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.
