What this shows Aquaporin's Innovation Score is 37.0/100 (top 45% 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 Aquaporin?

Each dot is one of Aquaporin’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). Aquaporin’s own 16.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 15.9 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Aquaporin's grants concentrate

Aquaporin A/S is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under B01D (Separation). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Aquaporin sits between Apic Yamada Corporation and Arcimoto, Inc..

Aquaporin's three-year grant acceleration

Aquaporin A/S shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
