What this shows Shanghai's Innovation Score is 47.1/100 (top 19% 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 Shanghai?

Each dot is one of Shanghai’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). Shanghai’s own 10.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 8.6 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Shanghai's grants concentrate

Shanghai Imilab Technology Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 18.2% of grants classified under E05Y (Indexing Scheme Associated With Subclasses E05d AND E05f, Relating TO Construction Elements, Electric Control, Power Supply, Power Signal OR Transmission, User Interfaces, Mounting OR Coupling, Detail). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (8 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Shanghai sits between SFS Group International AG and Shell Internet (BEIJING) Security Technology Co., Ltd..

Shanghai's three-year grant acceleration

Shanghai Imilab Technology Co., Ltd. shows 9 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
