What this shows Synthon's Innovation Score is 37.0/100 (top 45% 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 Synthon?

Each dot is one of Synthon’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). Synthon’s own 15.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.7 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Synthon's grants concentrate

Synthon B.V. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 59.4% of grants classified under A61K (Preparations FOR Medical, Dental OR Toiletry Purposes). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (8 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2017. By volume, Synthon sits between Spineology Inc. and TK Elevator Innovation and Operations GmbH.

Synthon's three-year grant acceleration

Synthon B.V. shows 8 grants in 2022–2024 against only 14 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.
