What this shows Leistritz's Innovation Score is 45.7/100 (top 23% 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 Leistritz?

Each dot is one of Leistritz’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). Leistritz’s own 14.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 7.0 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Leistritz's grants concentrate

Leistritz Pumpen GMBH is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 CPC subclasses with 93.8% of grants classified under F04C (Rotary-piston, OR Oscillating-piston, Positive-displacement Machines FOR Liquids ; Rotary-piston, OR Oscillating-piston, Positive-displacement Pumps). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Leistritz sits between Larc Networks, Inc. and Liquidia Technologies, Inc..

Leistritz's three-year grant acceleration

Leistritz Pumpen GMBH shows 12 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.
