What this shows Livent's Innovation Score is 43.5/100 (top 28% 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 Livent?

Each dot is one of Livent’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). Livent’s own 12.7 claims/patent is at or below the 16.1 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Livent's grants concentrate

Livent USA Corp. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under Y02E (Reduction OF Greenhouse GAS [GHG] Emissions, Related TO Energy Generation, Transmission OR Distribution). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Livent sits between Linzer Products Corp. and LN2 DB, LLC.

Livent's three-year grant acceleration

Livent USA Corp. shows 5 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.
