What this shows Leachgarner's Innovation Score is 34.8/100 (49th 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 Leachgarner?

Each dot is one of Leachgarner’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). Leachgarner’s own 12.0 claims/patent is at or below the 14.0 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Leachgarner's grants concentrate

Leachgarner, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under C22C (Alloys). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Leachgarner sits between LB Pharmaceuticals Inc. and LED iBond International A/S.

Leachgarner's three-year grant acceleration

Leachgarner, Inc. shows 2 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.
