What this shows Selc's Innovation Score is 52.0/100 (top 11% 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 Selc?

Each dot is one of Selc’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). Selc’s own 20.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 8.2 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Selc's grants concentrate

Selc Ireland Ltd is a focused PatentsView assignee: 13 CPC subclasses with 66.7% of grants classified under H05B (Electric HEATING; Electric Light Sources NOT Otherwise Provided FOR; Circuit Arrangements FOR Electric Light Sources, IN General). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Selc sits between Segton Advanced Technology and Sener, Ingenieria Y Sistemas, S.A..

Selc's three-year grant acceleration

Selc Ireland Ltd shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
