How THE’s 45.3 Innovation Score adds up
The same four weighted components behind every Innovation Score on PlainPatent: portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth.

What this shows THE's Innovation Score is 45.3/100 (top 23% 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 7.7 claims/patent is at or below the 16.0 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 Wave Talk, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 72.7% of grants classified under G01N (Investigating OR Analysing Materials BY Determining Their Chemical OR Physical Properties). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (6 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2021. By volume, THE sits between Tamko Building Products LLC and TNA Australia Pty Limited.
THE's three-year grant acceleration
THE Wave Talk, Inc. shows 14 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
