What this shows Waikatolink's Innovation Score is 39.1/100 (top 39% 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.

Where Waikatolink's grants concentrate

Waikatolink Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 44.4% of grants classified under G01S (Radio DIRECTION-FINDING; Radio NAVIGATION; Determining Distance OR Velocity BY USE OF Radio WAVES; Locating OR Presence-detecting BY USE OF THE Reflection OR Reradiation OF Radio WAVES; Analogous Arra). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Waikatolink sits between Win&win Co. Ltd. and Well Master Corporation.

Waikatolink's three-year grant acceleration

Waikatolink Limited shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
