What this shows ANT's Innovation Score is 41.1/100 (top 34% 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 ANT?

Each dot is one of ANT’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). ANT’s own 15.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.9 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where ANT's grants concentrate

ANT Applied New Technologies AG is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under B24C (Abrasive OR Related Blasting With Particulate Material). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, ANT sits between Annai Systems Inc. and APB Corporation.

ANT's three-year grant acceleration

ANT Applied New Technologies AG shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
