What this shows Pelican's Innovation Score is 46.3/100 (top 21% 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 Pelican?

Each dot is one of Pelican’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). Pelican’s own 10.3 claims/patent is at or below the 13.5 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Pelican's grants concentrate

Pelican Products, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 26 CPC subclasses with 18.8% of grants classified under Y10T (Technical Subjects Covered BY Former US Classification). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (10 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2024. By volume, Pelican sits between POE Lang Enterprise Co., Ltd. and Promethean Limited.

Pelican's three-year grant acceleration

Pelican Products, Inc. shows 3 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.
