What this shows Safeworks's Innovation Score is 44.0/100 (top 27% 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 Safeworks?

Each dot is one of Safeworks’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). Safeworks’s own 14.9 claims/patent is at or below the 17.9 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Safeworks's grants concentrate

SafeWorks, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 17 CPC subclasses with 71.4% of grants classified under B66B (ELEVATORS; Escalators OR Moving Walkways). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Safeworks sits between Symbolics Inc. and SamanTree Medical SA.

Safeworks's three-year grant acceleration

SafeWorks, LLC shows 5 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.
