What this shows Starconn's Innovation Score is 25.8/100 (18th 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 Starconn?

Each dot is one of Starconn’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). Starconn’s own 10.3 claims/patent is at or below the 16.6 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Starconn's grants concentrate

Starconn Electronic (Su Zhou) Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 66.7% of grants classified under H01R (Electrically-conductive CONNECTIONS; Structural Associations OF A Plurality OF Mutually-insulated Electrical Connecting ELEMENTS; Coupling DEVICES; Current Collectors). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Starconn sits between Soudronic AG and Sungkwang Medical Foundation.

Starconn's three-year grant acceleration

Starconn Electronic (Su Zhou) Co., Ltd. shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 12 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.
