What this shows Soclip!'s Innovation Score is 43.2/100 (top 29% 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 Soclip!?

Each dot is one of Soclip!’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). Soclip!’s own 17.9 claims/patent is ABOVE the 17.7 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Soclip!'s grants concentrate

SoClip! is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 85.7% of grants classified under G11B (Information Storage Based ON Relative Movement Between Record Carrier AND Transducer). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (3 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2021. By volume, Soclip! sits between Smith Sport Optics, Inc. and Solano Labs, Inc..

Soclip!'s three-year grant acceleration

SoClip! shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
