What this shows Life's Innovation Score is 28.1/100 (26th 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 Life?
Each dot is one of Life’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). Life’s own 6.3 claims/patent is at or below the 13.4 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Life's grants concentrate
Life Robotics Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 13 CPC subclasses with 76.2% of grants classified under B25J (MANIPULATORS; Chambers Provided With Manipulation Devices). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (6 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2017. By volume, Life sits between Largan Medical Co., Ltd. and LegoChem Biosciences, Inc..
Life's three-year grant acceleration
Life Robotics Inc. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 14 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.
