What this shows Ducati's Innovation Score is 38.0/100 (top 42% 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 Ducati?

Each dot is one of Ducati’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). Ducati’s own 14.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Ducati's grants concentrate

Ducati Motor Holding S.P.A. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 19 CPC subclasses with 71.4% of grants classified under B62J (Cycle Saddles OR SEATS; Auxiliary Devices OR Accessories Specially Adapted TO Cycles AND NOT Otherwise Provided FOR, e.g. Article Carriers OR Cycle Protectors). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Ducati sits between DSP Concepts, Inc. and Dupray Ventures Inc..

Ducati's three-year grant acceleration

Ducati Motor Holding S.P.A. 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.
