What this shows Ledlenser's Innovation Score is 31.5/100 (38th 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 Ledlenser?

Each dot is one of Ledlenser’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). Ledlenser’s own 5.0 claims/patent is at or below the 12.5 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Ledlenser's grants concentrate

Ledlenser GMBH & Co. KG is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 21.2% of grants classified under F21V (Functional Features OR Details OF Lighting Devices OR Systems THEREOF; Structural Combinations OF Lighting Devices With Other Articles, NOT Otherwise Provided FOR). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (8 grants) versus a trough of 3 in 2024. By volume, Ledlenser sits between Kindeva Drug Delivery L.P. and Mapa GMBH.

Ledlenser's three-year grant acceleration

Ledlenser GMBH & Co. KG shows 16 grants in 2022–2024 against only 14 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.
