What this shows Origin's Innovation Score is 49.6/100 (top 14% 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 Origin?

Each dot is one of Origin’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). Origin’s own 11.4 claims/patent is at or below the 13.4 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Origin's grants concentrate

Origin Company, Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 40 CPC subclasses with 37% of grants classified under B23K (Soldering OR UNSOLDERING; WELDING; Cladding OR Plating BY Soldering OR WELDING; Cutting BY Applying Heat Locally, e.g. Flame CUTTING; Working BY Laser Beam). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Origin sits between National University Corporation Tohoku University and Oldcastle Building Products Canada Inc..

Origin's three-year grant acceleration

Origin Company, Limited shows 12 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 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.
