We Now Explain How the Expansion Score Works

You have always seen the Expansion Score badge on brand profiles and search results, but until now we never spelled out where the number comes from. We have fixed that. There is a new page that walks through the whole thing: the five USPTO filing signals behind the score, how each one is weighted, what the green, amber, and red badges mean, and a worked example that does the maths step by step. Wherever a score shows up on the site, you can now click straight through to the explanation. See how the Expansion Score is calculated.
