What this shows Apption'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 Apption?

Each dot is one of Apption’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). Apption’s own 24.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.0 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Apption's grants concentrate

Apption Labs Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 88.9% of grants classified under G01K (Measuring TEMPERATURE; Measuring Quantity OF HEAT; Thermally-sensitive Elements NOT Otherwise Provided FOR). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Apption sits between Aphios Corporation and Aquinox Pharmaceuticals (Canada) Inc..

Apption's three-year grant acceleration

Apption Labs Limited shows 3 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.
