What this shows KA's Innovation Score is 30.1/100 (33rd 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 KA?

Each dot is one of KA’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). KA’s own 15.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.0 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where KA's grants concentrate

KA Imaging Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 60% of grants classified under H10F (Inorganic Semiconductor Devices Sensitive TO Infrared Radiation, Light, Electromagnetic Radiation OF Shorter Wavelength OR Corpuscular Radiation). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, KA sits between Jim Melhart Piano and Organ Company and Kaist (KOREA Advanced Institute OF Science AND TECHNOLOGY).

KA's three-year grant acceleration

KA Imaging Inc. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 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.
