What this shows NEO's Innovation Score is 27.2/100 (23rd 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 NEO?
Each dot is one of NEO’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). NEO’s own 10.6 claims/patent is at or below the 14.7 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where NEO's grants concentrate
NEO Medical SA is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 64.3% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, NEO sits between Nantong YA TAI Candle Arts & Crafts Co., Ltd. and Newlink Genetics Corporation.
NEO's three-year grant acceleration
NEO Medical SA shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
