What this shows Minesense's Innovation Score is 39.9/100 (top 37% 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 Minesense?

Each dot is one of Minesense’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). Minesense’s own 18.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.9 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Minesense's grants concentrate

MineSense Technologies Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 95.2% of grants classified under B07C (Postal SORTING; Sorting Individual Articles, OR Bulk Material FIT TO BE Sorted Piece-meal, e.g. BY Picking). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Minesense sits between Merichem Company and Multi-Holding AG.

Minesense's three-year grant acceleration

MineSense Technologies Ltd. shows 5 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.
