What this shows Univance's Innovation Score is 29.7/100 (32nd 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 Univance?

Each dot is one of Univance’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). Univance’s own 7.0 claims/patent is at or below the 16.0 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Univance's grants concentrate

Univance Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 83.3% of grants classified under F16H (Gearing). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Univance sits between Ulma Packaging, S. Coop and University OF Oslo.

Univance's three-year grant acceleration

Univance Corporation shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
