What this shows SVM's Innovation Score is 40.5/100 (top 36% 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 SVM?

Each dot is one of SVM’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). SVM’s own 15.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where SVM's grants concentrate

SVM Schultz Verwaltungs-GmbH & Co. KG is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 56.3% of grants classified under F16H (Gearing). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, SVM sits between Strategic Sports Limited and Salto, LLC.

SVM's three-year grant acceleration

SVM Schultz Verwaltungs-GmbH & Co. KG shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
