What this shows MQA's Innovation Score is 22.0/100 (9th 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 MQA?

Each dot is one of MQA’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). MQA’s own 15.2 claims/patent is at or below the 15.4 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where MQA's grants concentrate

MQA Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 80% of grants classified under G10L (Speech Analysis Techniques OR Speech SYNTHESIS; Speech RECOGNITION; Speech OR Voice Processing TECHNIQUES; Speech OR Audio Coding OR Decoding). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, MQA sits between MOX Networks, LLC and MSG Lithoglas GMBH.

MQA's three-year grant acceleration

MQA Limited shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
