What this shows Trans's Innovation Score is 60.7/100 (top 3% 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 Trans?
Each dot is one of Trans’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). Trans’s own 21.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Trans's grants concentrate
Trans Astronautica Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 23 CPC subclasses with 68.2% of grants classified under B64G (COSMONAUTICS; Vehicles OR Equipment Therefor). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (7 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2022. By volume, Trans sits between The Yankee Candle Company, Inc. and Tyco Electronics Canada ULC.
Trans's three-year grant acceleration
Trans Astronautica Corporation shows 12 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.
