What this shows Scan's Innovation Score is 47.8/100 (top 18% 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 Scan?

Each dot is one of Scan’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). Scan’s own 15.5 claims/patent is at or below the 16.0 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Scan's grants concentrate

Scan Coin AB is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under G07D (Handling OF Coins OR Valuable Papers, e.g. Testing, Sorting BY Denominations, Counting, Dispensing, Changing OR Depositing). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Scan sits between SarTec Corporation and Scoperta, Inc..

Scan's three-year grant acceleration

Scan Coin AB shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
