What this shows Northeast's Innovation Score is 45.0/100 (top 24% 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 Northeast?

Each dot is one of Northeast’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). Northeast’s own 12.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 9.7 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Northeast's grants concentrate

Northeast Ohio Medical University is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 90% of grants classified under A61P (Specific Therapeutic Activity OF Chemical Compounds OR Medicinal Preparations). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Northeast sits between Nippon Yakin Kogyo Co., Ltd. and Novachips Canada Inc..

Northeast's three-year grant acceleration

Northeast Ohio Medical University shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
