What this shows Nepes's Innovation Score is 42.0/100 (top 32% 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 Nepes?

Each dot is one of Nepes’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). Nepes’s own 13.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 7.5 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Nepes's grants concentrate

Nepes Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under H01L (Semiconductor Devices NOT Covered BY Class H10). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Nepes sits between Navitar Industries, LLC and Norix Group, Inc.

Nepes's three-year grant acceleration

Nepes Co., Ltd. shows 11 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.
