What this shows Openwave's Innovation Score is 30.6/100 (35th 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 Openwave?
Each dot is one of Openwave’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). Openwave’s own 16.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.9 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Openwave's grants concentrate
Openwave Mobility Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 87% of grants classified under H04L (Transmission OF Digital Information, e.g. Telegraphic Communication). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Openwave sits between Oregon Precision Industries Inc. and OrderGroove, LLC.
Openwave's three-year grant acceleration
Openwave Mobility Inc. shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 10 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.
