What this shows Gascontec's Innovation Score is 32.8/100 (42nd 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 Gascontec?

Each dot is one of Gascontec’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). Gascontec’s own 14.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.2 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Gascontec's grants concentrate

Gascontec GMBH is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under C07C (Acyclic OR Carbocyclic Compounds). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Gascontec sits between Game Freak Inc. and GBS Global Biopharma, Inc..

Gascontec's three-year grant acceleration

Gascontec GMBH shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
