What this shows Soleras's Innovation Score is 50.1/100 (top 13% 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 Soleras?

Each dot is one of Soleras’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). Soleras’s own 17.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 9.7 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Soleras's grants concentrate

Soleras Advanced Coatings BV is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under H01J (Electric Discharge Tubes OR Discharge Lamps). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Soleras sits between Soasta, Inc. and South China SEA Institute OF Oceanology, Chinese Academy OF Sciences.

Soleras's three-year grant acceleration

Soleras Advanced Coatings BV shows 6 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.
