What this shows M.s.'s Innovation Score is 48.1/100 (top 17% 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 M.s.?
Each dot is one of M.s.’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). M.s.’s own 19.5 claims/patent is ABOVE the 15.2 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
