What this shows Société's Innovation Score is 33.2/100 (44th percentile 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 Société?

Each dot is one of Société’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). Société’s own 13.5 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Société's grants concentrate

Société Technique pour l'Energie Atomique is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under Y02E (Reduction OF Greenhouse GAS [GHG] Emissions, Related TO Energy Generation, Transmission OR Distribution). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Société sits between Smart Drilling and Completion, Inc. and Sonny's Enterprises, LLC.

Société's three-year grant acceleration

Société Technique pour l'Energie Atomique shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
