What this shows Ridley's Innovation Score is 25.3/100 (17th 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 Ridley?

Each dot is one of Ridley’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). Ridley’s own 12.6 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 Ridley's grants concentrate

Ridley USA Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 71.4% of grants classified under Y02P (Climate Change Mitigation Technologies IN THE Production OR Processing OF Goods). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Ridley sits between RFCyber Corp. and RKW SE.

Ridley's three-year grant acceleration

Ridley USA Inc. shows 2 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.
