What this shows Benelli's Innovation Score is 26.3/100 (20th 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 Benelli?

Each dot is one of Benelli’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). Benelli’s own 5.4 claims/patent is at or below the 15.7 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Benelli's grants concentrate

Benelli Armi S.P.A. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 26.9% of grants classified under F41C (Smallarms, e.g. Pistols, Rifles ; Accessories Therefor). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (4 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2017. By volume, Benelli sits between Axsun Technologies, Inc. and Black Donuts Engineering OY.

Benelli's three-year grant acceleration

Benelli Armi S.P.A. shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 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.
