What this shows KSR's Innovation Score is 46.8/100 (top 20% 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 KSR?

Each dot is one of KSR’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). KSR’s own 16.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.7 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where KSR's grants concentrate

KSR IP Holdings, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 28 CPC subclasses with 49% of grants classified under G05G (Control Devices OR Systems Insofar AS Characterised BY Mechanical Features Only). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (8 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, KSR sits between Imprivata, Inc. and Lantheus Medical Imaging, Inc..

KSR's three-year grant acceleration

KSR IP Holdings, LLC shows 12 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.
