What this shows SB's Innovation Score is 41.5/100 (top 33% 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.

Where SB's grants concentrate

SB Technology, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 55.6% of grants classified under G01C (Measuring Distances, Levels OR BEARINGS; SURVEYING; NAVIGATION; Gyroscopic INSTRUMENTS; Photogrammetry OR Videogrammetry). By volume, SB sits between Sanochemia Pharmazeutika AG and Sciencons AS.

SB's three-year grant acceleration

SB Technology, 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.
