What this shows Wilson's Innovation Score is 45.7/100 (top 23% 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 Wilson?

Each dot is one of Wilson’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). Wilson’s own 21.5 claims/patent is ABOVE the 17.7 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Wilson's grants concentrate

Wilson Tool International Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 23 CPC subclasses with 66.7% of grants classified under B21D (Working OR Processing OF Sheet Metal OR Metal Tubes, Rods OR Profiles Without Essentially Removing MATERIAL; Punching Metal). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (9 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Wilson sits between VON Ardenne Asset GmbH & Co KG and Whoop, Inc..

Wilson's three-year grant acceleration

Wilson Tool International Inc. shows 3 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.
