What this shows Sofidel's Innovation Score is 41.9/100 (top 32% 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 Sofidel?

Each dot is one of Sofidel’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). Sofidel’s own 17.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.0 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Sofidel's grants concentrate

Sofidel S.P.A. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 33.3% of grants classified under A47K (Sanitary Equipment NOT Otherwise Provided FOR ; Toilet Accessories). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Sofidel sits between SN Display Co., Ltd. and Sollum Technologies Inc..

Sofidel's three-year grant acceleration

Sofidel S.P.A. shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
