What this shows Warner's Innovation Score is 36.0/100 (top 48% 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 Warner?

Each dot is one of Warner’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). Warner’s own 18.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.0 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Warner's grants concentrate

Warner Electric Technology LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 87% of grants classified under F16D (Couplings FOR Transmitting ROTATION; CLUTCHES; Brakes). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2024. By volume, Warner sits between Wella Operations US, LLC and Wilsonart LLC.

Warner's three-year grant acceleration

Warner Electric Technology LLC 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.
