What this shows Stormtech's Innovation Score is 30.3/100 (34th 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 Stormtech?

Each dot is one of Stormtech’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). Stormtech’s own 19.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 18.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Stormtech's grants concentrate

Stormtech LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under E02B (Hydraulic Engineering). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Stormtech sits between STL Technology Co., Ltd. and Strategic Patent Management, LLC.

Stormtech's three-year grant acceleration

Stormtech LLC 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.
