What this shows Soremartec's Innovation Score is 50.4/100 (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 Soremartec?

Each dot is one of Soremartec’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). Soremartec’s own 7.3 claims/patent is at or below the 17.2 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Soremartec's grants concentrate

Soremartec S.A. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 36 CPC subclasses with 21.2% of grants classified under A23G (COCOA; Cocoa Products, e.g. CHOCOLATE; Substitutes FOR Cocoa OR Cocoa PRODUCTS; CONFECTIONERY; Chewing GUM; ICE-CREAM; Preparation Thereof). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (9 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Soremartec sits between Shenzhen Carku Technology Co., Limited and Sutro Biopharma, Inc..

Soremartec's three-year grant acceleration

Soremartec S.A. shows 15 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 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.
