What this shows Korloy's Innovation Score is 31.6/100 (38th 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 Korloy?

Each dot is one of Korloy’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). Korloy’s own 8.0 claims/patent is at or below the 16.2 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Korloy's grants concentrate

Korloy Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 51% of grants classified under B23C (Milling). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (8 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Korloy sits between Itron Networked Solutions, Inc. and Lwrc International LLC.

Korloy's three-year grant acceleration

Korloy Inc. shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 17 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.
