What this shows Research's Innovation Score is 31.6/100 (38th percentile 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 Research?

Each dot is one of Research’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). Research’s own 12.6 claims/patent is at or below the 16.1 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Research's grants concentrate

Research & Design Innovations, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 60% of grants classified under B63B (Ships OR Other Waterborne VESSELS; Equipment FOR Shipping). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Research sits between Red Tail Hawk Corporation and Robern, Inc..

Research's three-year grant acceleration

Research & Design Innovations, LLC shows 3 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.
