What this shows Wiab's Innovation Score is 43.8/100 (top 27% 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 Wiab?

Each dot is one of Wiab’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). Wiab’s own 15.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 15.2 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Wiab's grants concentrate

Wiab Water Innovation AB is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 91.3% of grants classified under C01B (Non-metallic ELEMENTS; Compounds THEREOF; ; Metalloids OR Compounds Thereof NOT Covered BY Subclass C01c). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Wiab sits between Washtech Holding GmbH and Weifang Goertek Microelectronics Co., Ltd..

Wiab's three-year grant acceleration

Wiab Water Innovation AB shows 11 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 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.
