What this shows Tangle's Innovation Score is 32.2/100 (40th 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 Tangle?

Each dot is one of Tangle’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). Tangle’s own 5.5 claims/patent is at or below the 16.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Tangle's grants concentrate

Tangle Teezer Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 23.3% of grants classified under A46B (Brushes). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Tangle sits between Tong Hsing Electronic Industries, Ltd. and The University of Memphis Research Foundation.

Tangle's three-year grant acceleration

Tangle Teezer Limited shows 11 grants in 2022–2024 against only 8 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.
