What this shows Aerco's Innovation Score is 28.1/100 (26th 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 Aerco?

Each dot is one of Aerco’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). Aerco’s own 9.6 claims/patent is at or below the 16.9 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Aerco's grants concentrate

Aerco International, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 31.3% of grants classified under F24H (Fluid Heaters, e.g. Water OR AIR Heaters, Having Heat-generating Means, e.g. Heat Pumps, IN General). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (9 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Aerco sits between Adagio Medical, Inc. and AhP-Tech Inc..

Aerco's three-year grant acceleration

Aerco International, Inc. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 10 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.
