What this shows Semigear's Innovation Score is 29.3/100 (30th 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 Semigear?

Each dot is one of Semigear’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). Semigear’s own 12.8 claims/patent is at or below the 17.6 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Semigear's grants concentrate

SEMIgear, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under H01L (Semiconductor Devices NOT Covered BY Class H10). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Semigear sits between Secret Double Octopus Ltd. and Sentient Technology Holdings, LLC.

Semigear's three-year grant acceleration

SEMIgear, Inc. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
