What this shows Smart's Innovation Score is 40.5/100 (top 35% 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 Smart?

Each dot is one of Smart’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). Smart’s own 17.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.7 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Smart's grants concentrate

Smart Shooter Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under F41G (Weapon SIGHTS; Aiming). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Smart sits between Slinger BAG Ltd and Smiths Detection Germany GMBH.

Smart's three-year grant acceleration

Smart Shooter Ltd. shows 2 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.
