What this shows Malema's Innovation Score is 39.5/100 (top 38% 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 Malema?

Each dot is one of Malema’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). Malema’s own 19.3 claims/patent is ABOVE the 18.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Malema's grants concentrate

Malema Engineering Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 90.9% of grants classified under G01F (Measuring Volume, Volume Flow, Mass Flow OR Liquid LEVEL; Metering BY Volume). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Malema sits between MagLev Aero Inc. and Markport Limited.

Malema's three-year grant acceleration

Malema Engineering Corporation shows 3 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.
