Does more volume mean deeper claims for Novem?
Each dot is one of Novem’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). Novem’s own 13.7 claims/patent is at or below the 15.1 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Novem's grants concentrate
Novem Car Interior Design GmbH is a focused PatentsView assignee: 24 CPC subclasses with 66.7% of grants classified under B60Q (Arrangement OF Signalling OR Lighting Devices, THE Mounting OR Supporting Thereof OR Circuits Therefor, FOR Vehicles IN General). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Novem sits between Nivel Parts & Manufacturing Co., LLC and Ortho-tain, Inc..
Novem's three-year grant acceleration
Novem Car Interior Design GmbH shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 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.
