What this shows Saint-augustin's Innovation Score is 46.6/100 (top 20% 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 Saint-augustin?

Each dot is one of Saint-augustin’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). Saint-augustin’s own 14.4 claims/patent is at or below the 14.9 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Saint-augustin's grants concentrate

Saint-Augustin Canada Electric Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 28 CPC subclasses with 81.1% of grants classified under Y02E (Reduction OF Greenhouse GAS [GHG] Emissions, Related TO Energy Generation, Transmission OR Distribution). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (8 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2024. By volume, Saint-augustin sits between Smeg S.P.A. and Sentinel Labs Israel Ltd..

Saint-augustin's three-year grant acceleration

Saint-Augustin Canada Electric Inc. shows 14 grants in 2022–2024 against only 14 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.
