What this shows Thermaco's Innovation Score is 45.6/100 (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 Thermaco?

Each dot is one of Thermaco’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). Thermaco’s own 18.4 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 Thermaco's grants concentrate

Thermaco Incorporated is a focused PatentsView assignee: 18 CPC subclasses with 81% of grants classified under E03F (SEWERS; Cesspools). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Thermaco sits between The Aga Khan University and Tractor Supply Company.

Thermaco's three-year grant acceleration

Thermaco Incorporated shows 8 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 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.
