What this shows Improbed's Innovation Score is 30.3/100 (34th 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 Improbed?

Each dot is one of Improbed’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). Improbed’s own 17.5 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.6 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Improbed's grants concentrate

Improbed AB is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under F23C (Methods OR Apparatus FOR Combustion Using Fluid Fuel OR Solid Fuel Suspended IN ; A Carrier GAS OR; AIR). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Improbed sits between IMC Toys, S.A. and Indian Statistical Institute.

Improbed's three-year grant acceleration

Improbed AB shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 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.
