How National’s 70.0 Innovation Score adds up
The same four weighted components behind every Innovation Score on PlainPatent: portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth.

What this shows National's Innovation Score is 70.0/100 (top 1% 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 National?
Each dot is one of National’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). National’s own 13.2 claims/patent is at or below the 13.3 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
How National's grant cadence moved
Grant history spans 2021–2025. Across complete PatentsView years, output peaked in 2023 at 38 grants and bottomed in 2021 at 7. Lead class G06T accounts for 12.9% of the portfolio across 84 subclasses. Volume neighbours: Joby Aero, Inc. (#2,771) and SoftBank Corp. (#2,779).
National's three-year grant acceleration
National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University shows 95 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 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.
