What this shows Will's Innovation Score is 35.4/100 (top 49% 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 Will?

Each dot is one of Will’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). Will’s own 10.2 claims/patent is at or below the 12.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Will's grants concentrate

Will Semiconductor (SHANGHAI) Co. Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 14 CPC subclasses with 50% of grants classified under G06V (Image OR Video Recognition OR Understanding). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Will sits between Wearsafe Labs, LLC and Wuxi Kaishun Medical Device Manufacturing Co., Ltd..

Will's three-year grant acceleration

Will Semiconductor (SHANGHAI) Co. Ltd. shows 5 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.
