What this shows NZP's Innovation Score is 26.9/100 (22nd 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 NZP?

Each dot is one of NZP’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). NZP’s own 17.5 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where NZP's grants concentrate

NZP UK Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under C07J (Steroids). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, NZP sits between NUU Collective LLC and Nano-Master, Inc..

NZP's three-year grant acceleration

NZP UK Limited shows 2 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.
