What this shows UHA's Innovation Score is 30.1/100 (33rd 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 UHA?

Each dot is one of UHA’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). UHA’s own 10.2 claims/patent is at or below the 12.5 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where UHA's grants concentrate

UHA Mikakuto Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 50% of grants classified under A23V (Indexing Scheme Relating TO Foods, Foodstuffs OR Non-alcoholic Beverages AND Lactic OR Propionic Acid Bacteria Used IN Foodstuffs OR Food Preparation). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, UHA sits between U.S. Photonics, Inc. and Umami Worldwide, LLC.

UHA's three-year grant acceleration

UHA Mikakuto Co., Ltd. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
