What this shows Premium's Innovation Score is 58.3/100 (top 5% 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 Premium?

Each dot is one of Premium’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). Premium’s own 11.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 10.6 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Premium's grants concentrate

Premium Aerotec GmbH is a focused PatentsView assignee: 42 CPC subclasses with 47.9% of grants classified under B29C (Shaping OR Joining OF PLASTICS; Shaping OF Material IN A Plastic State, NOT Otherwise Provided FOR; After-treatment OF THE Shaped Products, e.g. Repairing). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (9 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Premium sits between Phoenix Contact E-mobility GMBH and Screen Semiconductor Solutions Co., Ltd..

Premium's three-year grant acceleration

Premium Aerotec GmbH shows 20 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 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.
