What this shows Virnect's Innovation Score is 37.9/100 (top 42% 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 Virnect?

Each dot is one of Virnect’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). Virnect’s own 8.0 claims/patent is at or below the 19.1 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Virnect's grants concentrate

Virnect Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 16 CPC subclasses with 94.7% of grants classified under G06T (Image Data Processing OR Generation, IN General). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2024. By volume, Virnect sits between Utah Valley University and Vessix Vascular, Inc..

Virnect's three-year grant acceleration

Virnect Inc. shows 9 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 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.
