What this shows Unmanned's Innovation Score is 51.4/100 (top 11% 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 Unmanned?

Each dot is one of Unmanned’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). Unmanned’s own 26.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 17.6 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Unmanned's grants concentrate

Unmanned Innovations, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 25 CPC subclasses with 96.9% of grants classified under B64U (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles [UAV]; Equipment Therefor). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (11 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Unmanned sits between UNIVERSITÀ Degli Studi DI Roma “LA SAPIENZA” and Violin Memory LLC.

Unmanned's three-year grant acceleration

Unmanned Innovations, Inc. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
