What this shows The's Innovation Score is 42.9/100 (top 29% 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.

Where The's grants concentrate

The Wooster Brush Company is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 20.8% of grants classified under A46B (Brushes). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, The sits between Tensera Networks Ltd. and Touchcast, Inc..

The's three-year grant acceleration

The Wooster Brush Company shows 8 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.
