What this shows Kortek's Innovation Score is 39.0/100 (top 39% 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 Kortek?

Each dot is one of Kortek’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). Kortek’s own 19.9 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.5 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Kortek's grants concentrate

Kortek Industries Pty Ltd is a focused PatentsView assignee: 16 CPC subclasses with 86.7% of grants classified under H04W (Wireless Communication Networks). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Kortek sits between KnowmTech, LLC and Kyocera International Inc..

Kortek's three-year grant acceleration

Kortek Industries Pty Ltd shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
