What this shows Kona's Innovation Score is 43.4/100 (top 28% 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 Kona?

Each dot is one of Kona’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). Kona’s own 11.2 claims/patent is at or below the 11.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Kona's grants concentrate

Kona M Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under G06K (Graphical Data Reading ; Presentation OF DATA; Record CARRIERS; Handling Record Carriers). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Kona sits between Koerber Supply Chain Automation Eisenberg GmbH and Kongsberg Precision Cutting Systems Belgium BV.

Kona's three-year grant acceleration

Kona M Co., Ltd. shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
