What this shows Glatz's Innovation Score is 26.7/100 (21st 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 Glatz?

Each dot is one of Glatz’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). Glatz’s own 8.3 claims/patent is at or below the 15.6 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Glatz's grants concentrate

Glatz AG is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 42.9% of grants classified under A45B (Walking Sticks ; UMBRELLAS; Ladies' OR Like Fans). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Glatz sits between Get Together, Inc. and Global Invacom Limited.

Glatz's three-year grant acceleration

Glatz AG 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.
