What this shows Onespan's Innovation Score is 35.8/100 (top 48% 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 Onespan?

Each dot is one of Onespan’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). Onespan’s own 35.5 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Onespan's grants concentrate

OneSpan North America Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 93.3% of grants classified under H04L (Transmission OF Digital Information, e.g. Telegraphic Communication). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Onespan sits between OliX Pharmaceuticals. Inc. and Optotune AG.

Onespan's three-year grant acceleration

OneSpan North America Inc. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 11 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.
