What this shows Stelia's Innovation Score is 38.3/100 (top 41% 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 Stelia?

Each dot is one of Stelia’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). Stelia’s own 14.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Stelia's grants concentrate

Stelia Aerospace is a focused PatentsView assignee: 23 CPC subclasses with 63.2% of grants classified under B64D (Equipment FOR Fitting IN OR TO AIRCRAFT; Flight SUITS; PARACHUTES; Arrangement OR Mounting OF Power Plants OR Propulsion Transmissions IN Aircraft). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Stelia sits between Sportwelding GMBH and Sydnexis, Inc..

Stelia's three-year grant acceleration

Stelia Aerospace shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 8 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.
