What this shows Protein's Innovation Score is 41.7/100 (top 33% 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 Protein?

Each dot is one of Protein’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). Protein’s own 20.0 claims/patent is ABOVE the 18.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Protein's grants concentrate

Protein Metrics, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 67.9% of grants classified under H01J (Electric Discharge Tubes OR Discharge Lamps). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Protein sits between Pie Medical Imaging B.V. and Raycan Technology Co., Ltd. (Suzhou).

Protein's three-year grant acceleration

Protein Metrics, LLC shows 10 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.
