What this shows Berkin's Innovation Score is 35.0/100 (top 50% 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 Berkin?

Each dot is one of Berkin’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). Berkin’s own 13.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.7 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Berkin's grants concentrate

Berkin B.V. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 58.8% of grants classified under G01F (Measuring Volume, Volume Flow, Mass Flow OR Liquid LEVEL; Metering BY Volume). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Berkin sits between Beekly Corporation and BIG Time Investment, LLC.

Berkin's three-year grant acceleration

Berkin B.V. shows 5 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.
