What this shows ID's Innovation Score is 52.8/100 (top 10% 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 ID?

Each dot is one of ID’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). ID’s own 12.5 claims/patent is at or below the 16.2 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where ID's grants concentrate

ID Quantique SA is a focused PatentsView assignee: 20 CPC subclasses with 70.8% of grants classified under H04L (Transmission OF Digital Information, e.g. Telegraphic Communication). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, ID sits between Hart InterCivic, Inc. and Industrias Alen, S.A. de C.V..

ID's three-year grant acceleration

ID Quantique SA shows 11 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
