What this shows KEY's Innovation Score is 46.4/100 (top 21% 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 KEY?

Each dot is one of KEY’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). KEY’s own 18.3 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.5 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where KEY's grants concentrate

KEY Asic Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 50% of grants classified under G05F (Systems FOR Regulating Electric OR Magnetic Variables). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, KEY sits between Keep Company, Inc. and KIH-utveckling AB.

KEY's three-year grant acceleration

KEY Asic Inc. shows 6 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.
