What this shows The's Innovation Score is 38.8/100 (top 40% 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 The?

Each dot is one of The’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). The’s own 16.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.6 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where The's grants concentrate

The Board of Regents of the Nevada System of Higher Education on Behalf of the University of Nevada is a focused PatentsView assignee: 20 CPC subclasses with 20% of grants classified under H10N (Electric Solid-state Devices NOT Otherwise Provided FOR). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, The sits between Texas Thorium LLC and The Davidson Works Co. Ltd.

The's three-year grant acceleration

The Board of Regents of the Nevada System of Higher Education on Behalf of the University of Nevada shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
