What this shows Netappli's Innovation Score is 34.1/100 (47th 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 Netappli?

Each dot is one of Netappli’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). Netappli’s own 12.6 claims/patent is at or below the 12.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Netappli's grants concentrate

Netappli Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 17 CPC subclasses with 50% of grants classified under A47G (Household OR Table Equipment). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (9 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2024. By volume, Netappli sits between Navy Federal Credit Union and Nikon-essilor Co., Ltd..

Netappli's three-year grant acceleration

Netappli Co., Ltd. shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 12 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.
