What this shows Keller's Innovation Score is 35.4/100 (top 49% 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 Keller?

Each dot is one of Keller’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). Keller’s own 17.3 claims/patent is ABOVE the 10.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Keller's grants concentrate

Keller Holding GmbH is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 85.7% of grants classified under E02D (FOUNDATIONS; EXCAVATIONS; Embankments ; Underground OR Underwater Structures). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Keller sits between Katana Racing, Inc. and Keystone Ridge Designs, Inc..

Keller's three-year grant acceleration

Keller Holding GmbH shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
