What this shows Postech's Innovation Score is 70.6/100 (top 1% 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 Postech?

Each dot is one of Postech’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). Postech’s own 13.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 10.6 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

How Postech's grant cadence moved

Grant history spans 2021–2025. Across complete PatentsView years, output peaked in 2024 at 45 grants and bottomed in 2021 at 7. Lead class H01Q accounts for 13.9% of the portfolio across 118 subclasses. Volume neighbours: LSI (#2,575) and Zhejiang LAB (#2,583).

Postech's three-year grant acceleration

Postech Research and Business Development Foundation shows 97 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 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.
