What this shows Openlight's Innovation Score is 61.1/100 (top 3% 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 Openlight?

Each dot is one of Openlight’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). Openlight’s own 18.3 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.6 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Openlight's grants concentrate

OpenLight Photonics, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 24 CPC subclasses with 65% of grants classified under G02B (Optical Elements, Systems OR Apparatus). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (21 grants) versus a trough of 7 in 2024. By volume, Openlight sits between OMG, Inc. and Pontificia Universidad Catolica DE Chile.

Openlight's three-year grant acceleration

OpenLight Photonics, Inc. shows 39 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
