What this shows IWT's Innovation Score is 41.8/100 (top 32% 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 IWT?

Each dot is one of IWT’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). IWT’s own 11.8 claims/patent is at or below the 13.2 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where IWT's grants concentrate

IWT S.R.L. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 13 CPC subclasses with 81.8% of grants classified under B08B (Cleaning IN GENERAL; Prevention OF Fouling IN General). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, IWT sits between IT Luggage Limited and Iceberg Luxembourg S.A.R.L..

IWT's three-year grant acceleration

IWT S.R.L. shows 6 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.
