What this shows Kumonos's Innovation Score is 30.0/100 (33rd 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 Kumonos?

Each dot is one of Kumonos’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). Kumonos’s own 7.2 claims/patent is at or below the 14.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Kumonos's grants concentrate

Kumonos Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 60% of grants classified under G01C (Measuring Distances, Levels OR BEARINGS; SURVEYING; NAVIGATION; Gyroscopic INSTRUMENTS; Photogrammetry OR Videogrammetry). By volume, Kumonos sits between KUK IL Inntot Co. , Ltd. and Kurray Co., Ltd..

Kumonos's three-year grant acceleration

Kumonos Corporation shows 2 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.
