What this shows Texas's Innovation Score is 33.4/100 (44th 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 Texas?

Each dot is one of Texas’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). Texas’s own 17.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.6 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Texas's grants concentrate

Texas Institute of Science, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 66.7% of grants classified under H04R (Loudspeakers, Microphones, Gramophone Pick-ups OR Like Acoustic Electromechanical TRANSDUCERS; Deaf-aid SETS; Public Address Systems). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (13 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Texas sits between Teratech Corporation and The C.W. Zumbiel Company.

Texas's three-year grant acceleration

Texas Institute of Science, Inc. shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 14 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.
