What this shows Iceotope's Innovation Score is 49.8/100 (top 14% 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 Iceotope?

Each dot is one of Iceotope’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). Iceotope’s own 18.3 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Iceotope's grants concentrate

Iceotope Group Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under H05K (Printed CIRCUITS; Casings OR Constructional Details OF Electric APPARATUS; Manufacture OF Assemblages OF Electrical Components). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Iceotope sits between Intermec Technologies Corporation and InEnTec Inc..

Iceotope's three-year grant acceleration

Iceotope Group Limited shows 13 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.
