What this shows Katana's Innovation Score is 32.4/100 (41st 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 Katana?

Each dot is one of Katana’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). Katana’s own 14.0 claims/patent is at or below the 17.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Katana's grants concentrate

Katana Safety, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 CPC subclasses with 45.5% of grants classified under H04M (Telephonic Communication). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Katana sits between Kyung Dong ONE Corporation and Kinetic Furniture of Vermont Inc..

Katana's three-year grant acceleration

Katana Safety, Inc. shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
