What this shows Swissto's Innovation Score is 45.8/100 (top 22% 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 Swissto?

Each dot is one of Swissto’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). Swissto’s own 15.9 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.2 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Swissto's grants concentrate

SWISSto 12 SA is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 92.3% of grants classified under H01P (WAVEGUIDES; Resonators, Lines, OR Other Devices OF THE Waveguide Type). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Swissto sits between Surface Oncology, LLC and Safe Flight Instrument, LLC.

Swissto's three-year grant acceleration

SWISSto 12 SA shows 8 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.
