What this shows Mechanical's Innovation Score is 24.4/100 (15th 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 Mechanical?

Each dot is one of Mechanical’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). Mechanical’s own 18.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 8.6 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Mechanical's grants concentrate

Mechanical Software Technologies, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under G05B (Control OR Regulating Systems IN GENERAL; Functional Elements OF Such SYSTEMS; Monitoring OR Testing Arrangements FOR Such Systems OR Elements). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Mechanical sits between Mean Well Enterprises Co., Ltd. and Medi Futures Co., Ltd..

Mechanical's three-year grant acceleration

Mechanical Software Technologies, Inc. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
