What this shows Uniloc's Innovation Score is 31.1/100 (36th 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 Uniloc?

Each dot is one of Uniloc’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). Uniloc’s own 13.9 claims/patent is at or below the 13.9 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Uniloc's grants concentrate

Uniloc 2017 LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 61.9% of grants classified under H04L (Transmission OF Digital Information, e.g. Telegraphic Communication). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (9 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2022. By volume, Uniloc sits between UBE Material Industries, Ltd. and Univerzita PALACKÉHO V Olomouci.

Uniloc's three-year grant acceleration

Uniloc 2017 LLC shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 15 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.
