What this shows Aquagen's Innovation Score is 25.5/100 (17th 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 Aquagen?

Each dot is one of Aquagen’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). Aquagen’s own 8.1 claims/patent is at or below the 15.1 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Aquagen's grants concentrate

Aquagen AS is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under C12Q (Measuring OR Testing Processes Involving Enzymes, Nucleic Acids OR Microorganisms ; Compositions OR Test Papers THEREFOR; Processes OF Preparing Such COMPOSITIONS; Condition-responsive Control IN Micr). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Aquagen sits between Appnomic Systems Private Limited and Armatura LLC.

Aquagen's three-year grant acceleration

Aquagen AS shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
