What this shows Sequent's Innovation Score is 29.6/100 (31st 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 Sequent?

Each dot is one of Sequent’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). Sequent’s own 13.8 claims/patent is at or below the 14.3 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Sequent's grants concentrate

Sequent Software, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under G06Q (Information AND Communication Technology [ICT] Specially Adapted FOR Administrative, Commercial, Financial, Managerial OR Supervisory PURPOSES; Systems OR Methods Specially Adapted FOR Administrative,). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Sequent sits between Sentilus Holdco, LLC and Seton Healthcare Family.

Sequent's three-year grant acceleration

Sequent Software, Inc. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
