What this shows King's Innovation Score is 25.2/100 (17th 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 King?

Each dot is one of King’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). King’s own 10.4 claims/patent is at or below the 12.2 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where King's grants concentrate

King Agro Europa S.L. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 60% of grants classified under B05B (Spraying APPARATUS; Atomising APPARATUS; Nozzles). By volume, King sits between Kilt Planning Office Inc. and Kiutra GMBH.

King's three-year grant acceleration

King Agro Europa S.L. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
