What this shows Man-d-tec's Innovation Score is 41.8/100 (top 32% 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 Man-d-tec?

Each dot is one of Man-d-tec’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). Man-d-tec’s own 17.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 15.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Man-d-tec's grants concentrate

Man-D-Tec, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 71.4% of grants classified under F21V (Functional Features OR Details OF Lighting Devices OR Systems THEREOF; Structural Combinations OF Lighting Devices With Other Articles, NOT Otherwise Provided FOR). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Man-d-tec sits between MagPump, LLC and Manufacturing Systems Limited.

Man-d-tec's three-year grant acceleration

Man-D-Tec, 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.
