What this shows Qortek's Innovation Score is 39.7/100 (top 37% 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 Qortek?

Each dot is one of Qortek’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). Qortek’s own 14.3 claims/patent is at or below the 17.3 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Qortek's grants concentrate

QorTek, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 85.7% of grants classified under H10N (Electric Solid-state Devices NOT Otherwise Provided FOR). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Qortek sits between QView Medical Inc. and Qualitrol Company LLC.

Qortek's three-year grant acceleration

QorTek, Inc. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
