What this shows Jost-werke's Innovation Score is 50.4/100 (top 13% 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 Jost-werke?

Each dot is one of Jost-werke’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). Jost-werke’s own 18.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Jost-werke's grants concentrate

Jost-werke Deutschland GMBH is a focused PatentsView assignee: 23 CPC subclasses with 65% of grants classified under B60D (Vehicle Connections). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Jost-werke sits between JAC Operations, Inc. and Jubilant Draximage Inc..

Jost-werke's three-year grant acceleration

Jost-werke Deutschland GMBH shows 9 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
