What this shows Slis's Innovation Score is 24.2/100 (14th 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 Slis?

Each dot is one of Slis’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). Slis’s own 4.8 claims/patent is at or below the 14.5 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Slis's grants concentrate

Slis, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 12.5% of grants classified under B01F (Mixing, e.g. Dissolving, Emulsifying OR Dispersing). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Slis sits between Skyre Inc. and Smpl Inc.

Slis's three-year grant acceleration

Slis, 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.
