What this shows Tighitco's Innovation Score is 42.7/100 (top 30% 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 Tighitco?

Each dot is one of Tighitco’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). Tighitco’s own 21.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 15.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Tighitco's grants concentrate

Tighitco, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 87.5% of grants classified under B33Y (Additive Manufacturing, i.e. Manufacturing OF Three-dimensional [3-D] Objects BY Additive Deposition, Additive Agglomeration OR Additive Layering, e.g. BY 3-D Printing, Stereolithography OR Selective ). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Tighitco sits between Three Seven Corporation and Titan Oil Recovery, Inc..

Tighitco's three-year grant acceleration

Tighitco, Inc. shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
