What this shows Novus's Innovation Score is 35.3/100 (top 50% 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 Novus?

Each dot is one of Novus’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). Novus’s own 17.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.7 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Novus's grants concentrate

Novus Scientific AB is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under A61F (Filters Implantable Into Blood VESSELS; PROSTHESES; Devices Providing Patency TO, OR Preventing Collapsing OF, Tubular Structures OF THE Body, e.g. STENTS; Orthopaedic, Nursing OR Contraceptive Device). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Novus sits between Nota, Inc. and Nutcracker Therapeutics, Inc..

Novus's three-year grant acceleration

Novus Scientific AB shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
