What this shows Walton's Innovation Score is 27.0/100 (22nd 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 Walton?

Each dot is one of Walton’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). Walton’s own 6.6 claims/patent is at or below the 8.2 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Walton's grants concentrate

Walton Advanced Engineering Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 57.1% of grants classified under G06F (Electric Digital Data Processing). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Walton sits between Voicify, LLC and Wearsafe Labs, LLC.

Walton's three-year grant acceleration

Walton Advanced Engineering Inc. shows 3 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.
