What this shows GB's Innovation Score is 29.9/100 (32nd 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 GB?

Each dot is one of GB’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). GB’s own 20.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 10.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where GB's grants concentrate

GB GAS Holdings Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 CPC subclasses with 80% of grants classified under G06F (Electric Digital Data Processing). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, GB sits between Garraith Ltd. and Gcoa Co., Ltd..

GB's three-year grant acceleration

GB GAS Holdings Limited shows 2 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.
