What this shows Music's Innovation Score is 34.2/100 (47th 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 Music?

Each dot is one of Music’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). Music’s own 15.5 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 Music's grants concentrate

Music Choice is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 80% of grants classified under H04N (Pictorial Communication, e.g. Television). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (8 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2017. By volume, Music sits between Monolith Semiconductor, Inc. and Naver Webtoon Ltd..

Music's three-year grant acceleration

Music Choice shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
