What this shows Appdynamics's Innovation Score is 35.5/100 (top 49% 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 Appdynamics?

Each dot is one of Appdynamics’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). Appdynamics’s own 24.5 claims/patent is ABOVE the 17.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
