What this shows Ridge's Innovation Score is 28.5/100 (28th 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 Ridge?

Each dot is one of Ridge’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). Ridge’s own 18.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.9 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Ridge's grants concentrate

Ridge Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 71.4% of grants classified under B62D (Motor VEHICLES; Trailers). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Ridge sits between RFA Brands, LLC and Rivertop Renewables, Inc..

Ridge's three-year grant acceleration

Ridge Corporation shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
