What this shows Trublue's Innovation Score is 31.7/100 (39th percentile 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 Trublue?

Each dot is one of Trublue’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). Trublue’s own 9.0 claims/patent is at or below the 14.3 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Trublue's grants concentrate

TruBlue, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 26.7% of grants classified under F16B (Devices FOR Fastening OR Securing Constructional Elements OR Machine Parts Together, e.g. Nails, Bolts, Circlips, Clamps, Clips OR WEDGES; Joints OR Jointing). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (4 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2020. By volume, Trublue sits between Transtex LLC and Turboden S.p.A..

Trublue's three-year grant acceleration

TruBlue, LLC shows 4 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.
