What this shows Effect's Innovation Score is 47.1/100 (top 19% 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 Effect?

Each dot is one of Effect’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). Effect’s own 17.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.2 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Effect's grants concentrate

Effect Photonics B.V. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under G02B (Optical Elements, Systems OR Apparatus). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Effect sits between Ecoflow Inc. and ELM.

Effect's three-year grant acceleration

Effect Photonics B.V. shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
