What this shows West's Innovation Score is 27.4/100 (24th percentile 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 West?

Each dot is one of West’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). West’s own 7.9 claims/patent is at or below the 13.1 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where West's grants concentrate

West & Bergh Holding AB is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 77.8% of grants classified under G09B (Educational OR Demonstration APPLIANCES; Appliances FOR Teaching, OR Communicating With, THE Blind, Deaf OR MUTE; MODELS; PLANETARIA; GLOBES; MAPS; Diagrams). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, West sits between WEB Industries, Inc. and Whatfix Private Limited.

West's three-year grant acceleration

West & Bergh Holding AB shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
