What this shows Micasense's Innovation Score is 29.2/100 (30th 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 Micasense?

Each dot is one of Micasense’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). Micasense’s own 10.3 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 Micasense's grants concentrate

MicaSense, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 33.3% of grants classified under G01J (Measurement OF Intensity, Velocity, Spectral Content, Polarisation, Phase OR Pulse Characteristics OF Infrared, Visible OR Ultraviolet LIGHT; COLORIMETRY; Radiation Pyrometry). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Micasense sits between Methodics, Inc. and Mimono LLC.

Micasense's three-year grant acceleration

MicaSense, Inc. shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 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.
