What this shows Varcode's Innovation Score is 32.0/100 (40th 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 Varcode?
Each dot is one of Varcode’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). Varcode’s own 10.0 claims/patent is at or below the 14.4 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Varcode's grants concentrate
Varcode Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 90.6% of grants classified under G06K (Graphical Data Reading ; Presentation OF DATA; Record CARRIERS; Handling Record Carriers). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (9 grants) versus a trough of 3 in 2021. By volume, Varcode sits between Ultima Genomics, Inc. and Yuan ZE University.
Varcode's three-year grant acceleration
Varcode Ltd. shows 10 grants in 2022–2024 against only 19 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.
