What this shows Hyland's Innovation Score is 37.4/100 (top 44% 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 Hyland?

Each dot is one of Hyland’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). Hyland’s own 17.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.5 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Hyland's grants concentrate

Hyland Switzerland Sarl is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 75% of grants classified under G06F (Electric Digital Data Processing). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (6 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2018. By volume, Hyland sits between Hsien Chang Optical Industrial Co., Ltd. and IMO Holding GMBH.

Hyland's three-year grant acceleration

Hyland Switzerland Sarl shows 8 grants in 2022–2024 against only 12 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.
