What this shows The's Innovation Score is 53.5/100 (top 9% 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 2.8 claims/patent is at or below the 13.5 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where The's grants concentrate
The Coleman Company, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 24 CPC subclasses with 4.8% of grants classified under F21V (Functional Features OR Details OF Lighting Devices OR Systems THEREOF; Structural Combinations OF Lighting Devices With Other Articles, NOT Otherwise Provided FOR). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (24 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, The sits between Oridion Medical 1987 Ltd. and University OF North Texas.
The's three-year grant acceleration
The Coleman Company, Inc. shows 49 grants in 2022–2024 against only 17 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.
