What this shows Wm.'s Innovation Score is 36.2/100 (top 47% 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 Wm.?

Each dot is one of Wm.’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). Wm.’s own 13.3 claims/patent is at or below the 15.1 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Wm.'s grants concentrate

Wm. T. Burnett IP, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 14 CPC subclasses with 55.3% of grants classified under A63B (Apparatus FOR Physical Training, Gymnastics, Swimming, Climbing, OR FENCING; Ball GAMES; Training Equipment). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Wm. sits between Vitra AG and Zhejiang Dunan Artificial Environment Co., Ltd..

Wm.'s three-year grant acceleration

Wm. T. Burnett IP, LLC shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 17 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.
