What this shows Anvil's Innovation Score is 39.7/100 (top 37% 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 Anvil?

Each dot is one of Anvil’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). Anvil’s own 18.9 claims/patent is ABOVE the 15.6 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Anvil's grants concentrate

Anvil Semiconductors Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under H01L (Semiconductor Devices NOT Covered BY Class H10). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Anvil sits between Anima Cell Metrology and Apollo Intelligent Driving (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd..

Anvil's three-year grant acceleration

Anvil Semiconductors Limited shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
